I'm going to be using a modified version of the Roadster perdal box. It's DIY obviously but certainally cheap. I cannot comment personally
on any commercial product but OBP seem to have a decent reputation.

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

i bought mine from someone who's not longer making bits. Got it cheap. Mate bought a luego gold package. I thought he'd paid over the
odds.
He got the better deal. Better quality, looked nicer (although basically identical). I've wasted far more time making mine fit.
OBP one looks identical to the one he bought from leugo (strange that! ) and i'd buy direct from them if i was doing it again.
Second place would be Chris's book if you wanted to make your own. I've read it and am stealing ideas for my ron champion locost - well
worth the pennies.

Mike R , I think the reason that the OBP pedal box looks like the old Luego one is because Grant form old Luego runs OBP. Sorry if I'm teaching
to suck eggs

Rusty, I was aware - hence the comment in brackets "(strange that )"
