Would be easer to assemble , you won't need anything to compress it.

Only a little finger will do.

That’s about right.

The first thing that I did was compress it one handed.

Anyway, to be fair to the vendor he was genuinely surprised that an error had been made when I pointed out the problem. He was pretty good about arranging for the correct spring to be posted.

It’s not here yet, but the photo that he sent this time was the correct spring. Matter of waiting.

Lucky it is not your main mode of transport.

Yes, it’s taking a little bit longer than originally planned....

Hello from Somerset Dam - here for a bit of Covid-less R&R.

I have bought a fair bit of kit from MR over the years and don’t have any complaints of note. However, in this instance they didn’t have exactly what I was after whereas the Italian fellow did. Same applies to all the other local sources that I have dealt with - nowadays unless it’s old stock that has been sitting there for years it’s nearly all Britpart or Bearmach and the differences are getting less evident.

Anyway, going Italian was the correct decision but, in this particular case, happened to have a poor initial outcome. Previous dealing with the same crew had been very good and once the correct part arrives, hopefully, will vindicate the original decision.

Cheers,

Neil

"Britpart or Bearmach and the differences are getting less evident."


Are you saying ****part quality is improving or Bearmach is going downhill?
