Default windscreen frames

So, where are people buying their windscreen frames from now ? I've tried several times to find snakebite, but my browser can't seem to find it !!?

I think Snakebite are no longer?? Since they left AP's old HQ their site has been dead.

I raised the question some time ago (on here) as I was chasing a few things and had no response so I assume they've closed.

Just bought a windscreen assembly from factory Five in the US for $648.00 US + $300 freight !!
It appears to be good value at that, I'll post again after it arrives with my thoughts.

Hey mate, its chrome plated brass
I haven't fitted it as yet, but got it out of the box when it arrived and it looks & the finish is 1st class. That's the best I can say.
Hope that helps

Rog
