Re:
Mine leaked from the venting adjusters unless they were done up 'king tight. Eric has promised to replace them when he has the next batch in, which hasn't happened yet...........

Re:
Have you posted about the problem on 914 world? He's on there a fair bit and he might respond quickly if he sees a potentially negative thread appear?

Oooh good idea
Thanks
Re:
I've got a set on mine. I haven't had an issue with leaks as yet to report.
I have more teeting problems with the handbrake and the fact that I have to unbolt the calipers to get the pads in. I've to try it yet, but shortening the pins may help.
Don't know if I've been lucky, but even with the little niggles, I'm happy with them.
Good luck.

Re:
Yep - Eric is a great guy with exceptional customer service standards. I've been a repeat customer of his and have no hesitation recommending him and his products to anyone. Sounds like German import tax department is not so nice
