Dave (Evo400) i think was one the first over here to fit one to his IX, i have one on order for the GT.
I have also fitted one to an 8 MR 320 (last summer)
I think they are a very good idea.:-

1. Losses in rotational mass.
2. A weight saving of around 15 kg
3. A lot more transmission friendly due to reason 1

I think WRC technologies stock the Props on here Lee

Danny Burns from the MLR has had one fitted to his 260 for a while, and I think Fallguy has one fitted to his IX.

Evo400 and WRC are both stockists as the Madone above pointed outed out

I was/am thinking about one.......................but first (or should that be next) mod is suspension

Sounds like these could be a good idea. Any possible problems?
