Parabolic Springs - where?

[Joshua993]

I have checked through threads on the forum - maybe I missed it. Does anyone know of a distrubator of the Heystee Parabolic Springs in the States - or a price of a set? I have sent emails to Heystee with no response.

man it aint free has been trying to get rid of those for awhile. they would be the cheapest and easiest bet

No need for a US distributor really. Paul can ship them anywhere. Mine were shipped direct. I will email him now. He ALWAYS responds promptly to me.

What has been your experience with the Parabolics, Hank? How are they holding up - would you recommend them?

I guess I missed that. Thanks! Do you have 2 leafs in front and 3 in rear or???

Holy crap, that's a steal.

Did they have 3-leaf packs on the Sale page?

What kinda $ straight from Paul? I know what MAF charges, of course.

I'm sorry to tell you guys, but Paul Heystee stopped his business september 1st of this year. He simply could not sell enough springs to make a living in these expensive times. Especially on this side of the pond. Having a business here is not easy.

I know he has some leftover stock, but he won't be producing springs again. I talked to Paul somewere in august for the last time and there was an interested party to buy the designs from him. I won't put the name of the springmaker on here and i don't know if he ever sold them.

So the times of parabolic springs for cruisers is over for now and maybe forever.

HTH

I didn't get the best news from Paul either but I am in contact with him. Information pending.

He finally replied to me and said that he would need thirty orders minimum to start production of the 60 series springs again. s***e, pisse, dang. I guess I will call mon-ey-fraid and see what all they have in stock.
