I was on the phone with Barbara Banke today, and depending on what I hear here and elsewhere, it may be the end of the product line for the Banke pedals. There is only a few items of each left in stock, and we may not have enough interest left on these to commit to another buy for a minimum purchase. How many folks out there don't have one, but would be planning on purchasing on in the next year? Al | ||

Id Love to have the pedal and shifter just not in the Budget this summer  | ||
| Tdman77 |
Their pedals are nice but just way over priced. I would buy one if it comes up in the classifieds or ebay but wouldn't pay full price for them. | ||

will be buying your 2up kit if still available in about a month. | ||

They're great, but not in the budget. I have friends with lathes and CNCs if I get around to modelling the parts I need. | ||

The shifter is what's particularly spendy. I had a weak moment when FMJ had one for sale and finally got one after having the brake and frame support for a couple years. The problem is that at least in pics, everything else looks cheap. | ||

There is one less shifter kit I just forked over for one. | ||
| Lowroad |
y'all are gonna make me buy the brake pedal to match the shifter aren't you. | ||
| Limitedx1 |

Al, I am thinking about it. | ||

When I got my X1 it had the shifter on it, so I got the brake pedal to match. Matching pulley to the PMs matching foot controlls...very nice, now I'm pickling the beast till I get time to ride where there's corners. | ||

Lowroad, When you get the brake pedal you've gotta get the matching frame brace!!!  "pickling the beast..." Is that what they're calling it these days? | ||

I received a message from Jim Banke today. I am going to order a shifter for my S1 and also a brake lever but he said they don't have any brake levers....f*%k I thought so I am on here to say I would buy a brake lever for sure!! I am going to talk to him tomorrow and see what he says. | ||

Snake, I might also be interested in the brake lever myself. I already have the reverse pattern shifter and frame brace on my '97 S1.See if you can get a price, and maybe we could get them to machine some more. | ||

F.Y.I. Ok Men, I just got off the phone with Jim Banke. He said that there is a small company that he is working out a deal for a small order of 15 brake pedals. If the deal goes through he will make them for us wanting one for the S1 or X1. He also said he needs atleast 8 orders to make it worth his time ect.... He said to call him directly and be put on a waiting list so when he reaches enough he will make them. His number is 831-335-1422 super nice guy. He also said he has a few shifters left and some pulley covers. Pretty slim pickings. He is also making me a polished timing cover end plate if anyone is interested call him. SNAKE | ||

Thanks for the information. I just installed the new Banke Shift lever and it is SOOOOO much better then stock. I was told it was the last of three that they had. Try it and you won't go back. | ||

| Lowroad |
