Raimo, It was something like 1200 for the whole system. I didn't see
any colour option apart from the red in their catalogue, but I wasn't
trying too hard as I like the red for the wheel.

to my plane. For me the beauty of the system resides in the wheel and brake,
which save you 3kg and are claimed to be significantly more efficient than the
standard kit. I have to say that fitting the brake lever to the stick didn't
do it for me. I want the brake to be accessible from both seats. So I have 
produced
a mod to mount the lever in more or less the same position as the standard
one. So my question is why not go for the fullMonty? Then all the right fittings
will turn up automatically!
