Guess I've been out of the loop for a while. Been pretty busy for quit some time and found out my project is killed, I think.
I finally got some extra cash and was going to try and put Vision's IPS on my Ryan Duplex. I headed off to my LBS to order up the IPS and he tells me that everything was sold off about 6 to 8 weeks ago. What happened? I thought they were one of the bigger companies that would prevail.
Does anyone know if someone else bought the patient for the IPS and is going to make it available again? Or..... does somebody have one setting on the shelf that I could get my hands on?
Any help or info on what's going on would be nice.
Thanks, Bill 96 Vanguard, 99 Duplex

Size is no asset- look at BikeE.
Vision went belly-up at the beginning of the year after money woes overwhelmed them. 2003 was not good- they laid off most of their people and didn't appear at Interbike. Their assets were auctioned off in March.

Hostel Shoppe used to list the IPS cranks in their catalog. Don't get your hopes up- I think tandem part production was one of the reasons they one of the reasons they weren't able to produce bikes.
