    No it still pivots but now the pivot point is at the top of the bracket rather than the bottom. It is still too high so will see what I can do to lower some more. I would hate to have to return it for a shorter one. Another problem is the dark tint is more difficult to look thru over My other much lighter shields. Thinking light grey might be more desirable.

    I gave up on the 17 inch in dark grey. Too tall and difficult to see through. At the lowest setting it looked to be about 3 inches too tall for me to look over and I'm 6'2". Did not like the dark grey either. Just installed a 13 inch in clear with the brackets in the suggested mounting. As expected the 4 inch shorter shield now looks like it needs to be raised about one inch with the slot adjustment. Can go more if I raise my seat later. Additionally the clear is much better in allowing me to see the road etc. I have it angled back at the top the max amount. I might try inverting the brackets again which allows more angle putting the top of shield closer to my head. I will try this one out "as is" for a while, it is already better than the CW I just took off.
