Who made those handle-bar pads that looked like 3 swimming-pool rope floates?
Usually blue color, even some of the team bikes had those.

You're probably thinking of the Gold Belt DeBruzer. There are some on eBay for ridiculous prices.

Yep, those were so cool in the 1980's. I think they would sell today!

Holy dogshit! I had no idea they were selling for that much. I know a guy who probably has 20 of them laying in a box somewhere in his store. I'll have to swing by and see if I can find them.

We gotta have a picture right? I think the Gold Belt Debruzer adds a period correct coolness to my '86 CR-250, along with Answer Accutrax handlebar stabilizer. Remember those too? They also bring a pretty penny on EBay if you can find them. These two items were the shizzle back in the 80's.

I agree mxracer106. It looks great on the '86 CR250!

Agreed! mid 80s CRs just looked complete with Debruzers and a front disc gaurd.

Had one on my RM 400, before I sold the bike last year.
Bought the bar pad as NOS at a bike shop in Vegas 15 ? or so years ago, on one of our trips over.

who ever makes those should be marketing on E-bay. roach originals are $50+.
I would buy one for sure. In fact I have an old kdx200 laying around if you need any parts. 85 or 6 i think.

Is there an English language version of the Circuit website? My new computer does not auto translate, I want to buy some of these pads, thanks

From what I saw, there isn't an English version of their website, and they won't ship internationally either from their Brazilian website.
