@mrfrosty - I talked about that with him. He acknowledged the problems people have had and said he had sorted that now. Even though I set my own expectation of Oct/Nov to receive these.

He did quote 6-8 weeks for Harrison blanks which would have extended the build time, but R1 FT's were in stock so there was no additional delay.

@nexus6 - I paid bank transfer on collection, no deposit.

The R1FT is such a sweet, sweet rod. I'm so pleased I chose it over Hi s or Aviator 👌

I see, I found the original threads on this, why I ended up using Kev Clayton for my Torrix, might as well use him again
