OK "Ausbrick"....

Stay in this forum, go back to the "for sale" title, and 2cd thread down is by "Beachcomber". He has been working to supply us and all
"Brick Riders" quality replacement lead-setS. Before anything else, contact him and see what he can do for you ! KEEP your business with fellow "K" riders BEFORE going anywhere else !

best regards......// Ernie-NH

Ausbrick, you must be thinking of Realm Engineering.

I ordered a set for myself just last week.

Thanks for that info . Realm eng is the one I was looking for . What is the general consensus on the silicon leads vs the origanals which are copper I believe, has anyone tried these new leads, if so whats the verdict.

Calling Beachcomber......

He was part of the prototype testing I believe.

The silicone that you are refering to is only the outer insulating supporting material. I think the inner core is still copper.
I don't know all the technicals on the wires.

They have now reduced the shipping charges from the original thoughts.

I ordered a set of the Yellows, which hasn't started production just yet, so I don't have them for an opinion.

Hey AUSBRICK, there's people here in OZ that make them as well, probably save you the freight and exchange rate nightmare. Buy a copy of AMCN and you will see heaps of them in the ads at the back.

Cheers
