Looks great!

 

2300.00 as well I believe

 

Ya - I think you are correct. It will be interesting for sure to see what price point they release at.

 

This guy is taking Pre Orders but be careful from what I remember this vendor and member was removed from TW.

Nice Share - At least the Release date appears to be on point - March 2017

 

I mean they are cool looking and all but at 2300 bucks for a bushing mounted top hat front coilover.... no thanks,

 

almost makes me wish i hadn't purchased the 6112/5160 combo, but it still rides amazing so I'll let it be lol

 

stuff found online...

Oh crap... I can feel my wallet getting thinner as I type.

 

I completely agree, although I do think they are adjustable once installed unlike the 6112's.

These won't even be in the same price bracket. No need for a lot of buyer's remorse.

 

Yeah they are adjustable. But for quite a bit less you can have a same or better coil over by fox / king / icon, that has true heim joints top and bottom.

I could see the 8112's around a 1500-1700 dollar price point... but not more than that.

 

It's 2300 for just the front coil overs, not the front and rears? that's overpriced

 

2300+ for just the fronts

 

No extended travel?

 

Adjustable via threaded spring seat? Does that mean they would have to be removed along with the reservoir to adjust since the hose is connected to the spring seat? Am I even seeing this correctly?

 

Lower spring seat. adjustable just like any fox / icon / king coilover, just the bottom seat instead of the top.

 

Sounds just like the new ome's bp-51 but more expensive.

 

Meh, I see another overpriced version of a King/Icon. I'd rather keep it simple with my 5100's, maybe upgrade for the rebuild ability from a king or icon setup. Most people don't realize you really will never need the super duper triple piston design and setup. Probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a king setup and these or even the 5100 series if you didn't tell them.
