The other option is to cut the bars vertical on both sides of the post. Open up the small part of the bar left and have a short piece of chromoly bar brazed in their. This would create a T-bar. I could use Aber Hallo system Thor USA has and use a multitude of bars.

Does Thor not have the safety latches?
I discovered my "new" Curve has a stem recall, putting my order on hold waiting Dahon's response

I have trial fit the AlloHaber to my one piece stem on the old SpeedPro8 and will use it if I need bar mods in the future.
