Default not to mention you can break like 6 of them
and still get out for less than the cost of an R1. I will continue taking my chances as i am sure you will too

Default My original stock valve lasted 8 years before the nipple got snapped off. Had that not happened
it would still be installed up until the 710N got installed.

Plus, I have a Forge 007 valve sitting on my desk right now.

Default You know, every time you've said something you've been put into your place and made a fool of
I tried the Forge 007 in my car and found it abrasive under full loads.

I'm not the only one to have said this too.

1 APR R1 = 4 710Ns too.

Default I'm not that impressed with my Dahlback.
Anybody want it so I can buy an R1?
