Do I just take the screw out of the end piece or is it glue on.

The bar ends are semi-glued on, but if you take out the screws, then rotate/wiggle the ends, it'll break the glue. When reinstalling the ends, I normally glue them on first, then once the epoxy has dried, drill holes for the screws. We haven't tried anything smaller than 14" with the REVs, so be careful!

EDIT: My spelling was fuck'd!

Thanks I have a 7m and 9m rev and the 7m is a bit fast and I lose the kite in my rotations and the 9m is so sweet I would like to slow the 7m down a bit, I was going to shorten it by 2 inches Idea
