Are Stipes Machine always difficult to contact? Mailbox is full, don't answer their E-Mails, nothing. Like to get information on another pair of lever shocks.
 
Finally got a live body at Stipes. They are 6-8 months out on shocks at the best. Plus they are moving the operation to Kentucky. Wondering what my options are? Just need a pair of nice early shocks that take the bolt on arms.
 
Snyder's are about the same price as Stipe's which are made in the USA. I question the lineage of Snyder's? Not demeaning them just speculating.
 
Ive used stipes and Brattons (sames as Snyders) shocks. By looking at them the stipes shocks are a piece of jewelry, but both perform well. Don Snyder does not sell junk, and I have a set of the shocks both they and brattons sells on my 31 Victoria and the perform as they should
 
Another option is to checkout Rotoshim from the UK - a completely new design of a performance lever shock. I believe they have both A and 32 types.

They're not cheap, but I sure would love to have a set to try out! LOL
 
For the two UK companies, it's possible they are on holiday. Companies pretty much close down in August for a lot of Europe.
 
I just saw a post on Goliath's Instagram account that they are working on smaller castings that will be a direct fit for the Model A/B bolt spacing.

I guess one can assume their current versions are not.
