I thought it sounded a bit tappety and could suffer from oil feed issues. It's good to see they've moved on from chocolate parts and another plus is that the rebuild costs would be affordable - I could literally afford a rebuild every 10 minutes or so. Are they aiming to race prove it like Wilder or just offer a 3 minute warranty ?.

Sounds more like a Speed 6

Not a Tiv, a Fezza, but this guy and his creation are truly humbling.

Rebuilds are quicker and easier though...

Just think...If you need a rebuild just pop down to your local toy shop.....

That's great. It even sounds right!
