FlexTek went under!
 
Just went to FlexTek's page because I was interested in a set of their arms, turns out they aren't making them anymore! I am surprised, I thought they did alot of business. It's sad to see another RC company go under, especially one with as good of a reputation as these guys. Everyone I know that has owned their suspension arms loves them.

This is what is on their website -

"Dear customers,

FlexTek RC will no longer be able to manufacture titanium suspension arms due to increased manufacturing costs. Quantities of arms are limited or depleted, please call for more information. A limited supply of arms will be held for warranty purposes.

We appreciate your support over the years."



Sorry if this is old news, I haven't seen any threads about it yet though.

i wouldnt expect any company that makes $300+ arms would be in business very long. The fact that you know more than one person with those arms is astonishing to me.

That's too bad, but I agree with the above. I'm kinda surprized they lasted that long.

It is nice they are saving some arms for Warr work even tho they went out of business. Medusa went under and it was SOL until Neu took over

They stopped selling arms quite some time ago- the cost of Ti and then machining it was just too great for relatively few sales.
