Sorry no news on the English part of his site. It's too new it is only on the French side sorry. www.babblefish.com

Just to make it clear RB is distributing this for RMV, but the RB name behind it says worlds to me of its quality.

I remember someone else posted about this a while back. It might have been NA. How does it worK? I don't see a spring of any kind. Unless there is something underneath that set screw. I've been thinking about ditching the 3 shoe on my buggy and getting a slide clutch. I wonder how this compares to the slide clutch?

This actually similar to another clutch I posted awhile back but is not the same. This clutch is brand new!

Edit, now that I look back I posted this clutch, along with another so you might have seen it back in Oct.

actually, that clutch has been around for awhile. it is the the daniel reckward clutch. the thing that make this clutch unique is that it has a set screw that you can adjust to affect clutch engagement. here's a link in english : http://reidrc.com/techpic7.htm

Thanks for the link. So they replaced the clutch nut with some dinky set screw as the means to attach the flywheel to the shaft? I'm not too sure about that.

It would be cool to really see one of these in person but my LHS doesn't carry anything like this.

Here is what TWF8 has to say about it!

They go on to explain the real differences between the 2 models.

This shows the differences between the 1 and the 2

Although we heard that this was a new product back in Oct, they have yet to have a distributer to make it available to the public. This annoucement shows that us privateers can now hook up this piece without being a signed pro or knowing a guy who knows a guy.

The RB clutch is the Reckward Speed II. They are the same thing.

It kind of works like a 2 speed clutch system (adjustable screws on spring)
