Hi Charles

I know you are just getting over the headache with the KIPS levers and pulleys, but .....................
Is there an ETA for these yet ? or is that something to worry about another day

Hi Bert,

the next and last batch of valves will be ready in March, can't say exactly when. I've got 3 F3-valves here left over from the first batch, I could send you those the next few days with your KIPS pullies. Perhaps rgvlee, who also lives in Perth, is willing to give you the 4th valve. AFAIK he doesn't need them atm and I'd send him this 4th valve as soon as the second/last batch will be ready. Just ask him, I don't know if he's willing to help, but why not......

regards,
Charles

Sorry for asking, but has anyone been actually using these?

Perhaps Gary or James?

cheers,
