Claude Gravel designed a pulley roller with ball bearings for use with a reactor or dakine roller bar (some drilling may be required). Claude (FMF on
the forum and his website/forum kitezone.ca) is a talented and longtime kiter from Montreal who came to kitestorm and the last wildwood buggy bash.
He was using one of these rollers that several of us were drooling over. We asked him about getting some and he told us he would look into a small
production run. He got back to us and can manufacture a small run, 12 pieces minimum, at a cost of $60 each. This will include then pulley, bearings,
stainless bolt, washers and lock nut.
This is great item that is suited for FB kiters that use a harness and strop. I have gone through many pulleys over the years and believe that this
may be the last on I will ever need.
If you are interested or have any questions please let me know. Claude needs a count by Sept 30 with delivery at the spring buggy bash.

Dumonstre thanks for the endorsement. Since I have never used one, it nice to hear that they perform well and and are build to last.
Sorry you can't make it to the bash. Try to make it sometime, it is a good time. I know that it a long drive for you, but other travel farther and
think it is worth it.
