<div>I've worked with Manuel, the designer, as well as Nacho and=
Bartolome, his sales guys. First rate communication and=
super eager to please. They were even going to paint my=
set in the color of my choice! I wonder how they'd look in=
lime green? Then they stood on their heads to get the=
closest match they could to FS36231. No complaints here,=
and I'll provide an update when the pedals arrive next=
week. I've been waiting for almost two months - part of=
waiting for the final switch from their beta, unpainted version,=
to the production painted version.<br></div>

Marv has the price about right for the production goodies,=
depending on the Euro exchange rate. Unfortunately one has=
to tack on another $200 for shipping if one goes expedited UPS=
airfreight. I imagine the slowboat price would be less, but then=
you'd have to go through all sorts of customs angst. These=
suckers weigh 11 kilos, about 25 lbs.<br></div>
