Why does my Accessory Idler Rail come with so many pieces?
To accommodate the three available sizes of Continuum 2 frame (8 foot, 10 foot, and 12 foot), the
Continuum 2 Idler Rail kit you’ve purchased may include more parts than your frame requires. Do
not discard the extra parts; you may need them if you choose to upgrade your frame in the future.
