Ok,theres plenty of interest,its down to them really.How much and what spec is the big question.I will ring them at 10am gmt and post a reply on here either way.I would rather keep out of it and let them deal with customers.But I now need three sets.

I think I'd be looking for +1mm and a slightly higher crown for a little more compression, or a stock spec could work too. Now I have something to look forward to tomorrow :)

I will put their number up if its OK with them.They didnt want me to know who had bought the first batch for some reason.1mm over is what I want,they did say any spec,so we will see.

FYI I'm in the US and it's pretty difficult to make a call over there, perhaps an email contact if they have one?

If its OK with them I will post their details in the morning.I dont want to handle a group deal.They should be able to take payments and organise a batch.I have no idea of a price,but I am in for 2 maybe 3 sets.depends on price.I will ring them mid morning. Any news on a Beet? I viewed all pics on the thread you sent me,I think Ti is what I want.

RVF pistons raise the compression a little bit in NC29's.
