Flexifoil wide axles in the US- FYI


Just a heads up for anyone that has been looking for a flexifoil wide axle for your older stainless flexi buggy. I spoke with Chad at www.trikebuggy.com and he has been having the old flexi bugs remade for powered paragliding as such his prices reflect it but he does have the wide axle available for purchase - $209.00 plus shipping which i dont think is that much more than when they were availble in the past. I know BEC order one from him and really liked as well i ordered one today to enhance my FLY (flexifoil land yacht) zooter copy

Great find, Scott. These last listed for $220 from Flexifoil before they were discontinued.

Bob, Its actually to extend the axle on the FLY (homemade zooter/landsailor) I have not sat in a bug in over a year. I might try this one out just because but the intent is that i can stabilize the zooter for the wife and younger son to use when we go to jekyll as a family.

Give a review when you've tried it, please. I am thinking it would be a nice addition for the few times a year I make it to a beach.

Is it possible to design for strength, if the designer doesn't really understand what strength is?
