Pretty disappointing write-up; they do not mention what is new or different. I hope they give dealers more info; I know we are due for a press release soon. Notice the 8.5 is gone.

Notice the new Scout Buggy made of regular steel and powder coated. Based on old design but with new seat. No more wide axles but they will have a limited run of wide-axles only at the end of the month.

I will ring them in the morning and get the skinny on pricing, Blade V features, etc.

Just got off the blower with Flexifoil. The Blade V is due in stock in the UK in two weeks and the press release with pricing and other detail is due out by the end of this week.

The Scout buggy is not due until August.

They are winding down the Stainless buggies. They have 13 wide-axles (just the axles) coming in next week and that will be the last. Current stock of regular buggies will be the last. A manufacturer of powered paragliders has taken a large order of the stainless wide axle buggies and there is talk of him maybe distributing them in the future, perhaps under his brand. These come from Eastern Europe and the rising Euro against the Pound makes them too expensive for Flexi.
