Low Overhang Expo handle new run
« on: April 30, 2017, 11:45:58 PM »
I am planning to purchase the parts for a new run of the handles.   ;D

The question is whether to plan on 25, 50 or 100 new kits! The first 25 sold out in 2 weeks, but then again, that may have been most of the potential market. I currently have about 10 requests for additional kits (which I don't have), so that is a hopeful sign.

Let me know your interest level, guys!  y1

Thanks for your input!  H^^

After analyzing the finances of the first run, I regret that the new price has to be $27.50 plus shipping. (Around $3 in the USA)

Can we get some weight figures from those of you who have put yours together? Seems to me like there's a trade-off between weight and the exponential benefit. I'm not sure I'd want heavier than what I have. H^^ Steve

Even though I'm happy with my handle setups now I guess I'd like to try one.  I'm in for one!

      I'll take one.

      Don't regret the $30. A few Dunkin' Donuts drivebys and it's paid for.

I have requested quotes on 50 and 100 sets of parts. It will be a while before they can be delivered and the kits assembled, so don't get your wallets out yet!

I hope not to run out of supply so soon this time. ;D

So far the performance feedback has been favorable.  H^^

For those joining the party late, here is the skinney on the concept and assembly as a .pdf In answer to the weight question, the links are aluminum and the handle very hollowed out, so it is quite light.

Paypal is my preferred option.

With the cost of the handles this one will replace,  $30.00 is not too much.   Set one aside for the old DOC. H^^
