What do you guys think about that? I think that would make Bill very proud and a really fitting final tribute. Good on you. Very good suggestion Ted, If I may suggest it would be nice if the Crank of Bill goes to Lee, he even called to australia to arrange flowers and he arranged a lot of other things and putted a lot of time in it.. altought everyone had his own input in a good way.. _________________ Chris Kuiper www.KuiperTrading.com

Hopefully someone can get you in contact with Bill's family

Bill and I PMed each other frequently and he is missed. I think the inscription on all would be awesome since I'm on the lightside. I would ride with pride with it on my bike. The new design is pretty nice to look at too! _________________ RESIDENT GRUMPY OLD MAN.

I suppose I could take the FPX along, although faced with a choice thats the first thing I'd let go of! Seriously, stuff like this really gets me excited. _________________ FAIRWHEEL BIKES EUROPE!

I have send you an email, can't wait to see those cranks in the flesh, I think they look awesome I like the big-fellow idea, so if his family is ok with it I wouldn't mind having his nick name on my cranks somewhere even if I would need the lightweight version.
