Wait a while as he US $ will be slipping some more this year . . .
Have ridden a few Fridays, although not extensively. Good value for the money and riding with family/kids.

Yep, the Arai drum brake gets a good workout here on our present tandem and is an essential upgrade as far as I'm concerned.

While I dream about the Santani Cabriolet, Retro Grouch mentions, the pricing is a bit steep for us. The BF does seem like good value for money.
