Maybe if we made a list of everyone interested it'd give him an idea of demand?
If there's enough demand...there's always supply! Smile

Maybe a list of people who at this current date are definitely interested would help, but yeah good point, hadn't thought about it!

I'd still be interested in one.

I'm out of action at the minute due to damaging one of my eyes, but I'll crack back on with them as soon as I'm able.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you are better soon.

On the subject of braces in general, if comparing a floppy poor design (e.g. E-Tech) to having none at all, there will be next to no difference. Any decent design (a straight bar, solid attachment points and with no pivots) will have a noticeable effect providing extra stiffness to what is quite a gap in the torsional rigidity of the body. Even if it is providing better rigidity, it may be difficult to feel on the road as it will not be a night and day difference all the time. My experience is that a decent design will provide a result, e.g. better turn in and less scuttle shake.

I was after one of these PhillipM jobs but no longer need one as I have now found a KD Racing one which works well for me.

A knats more and my vision would have been gone, as it is, I've been a very lucky boy and should get it back 100%.
Well, as well as it was before anyway, it's never been 100% LOL:

Nah, got smacked right in the eye by my husky pup with the tips of her claws with her weight behind, felt the whole eyeball squash, wasn't pleasant, was popping painkillers like sweets for a week or two.
