SH1T!!!

I cant believe I just sold my throttle to buy a Stako as well...

damn lol.

Does anyone know offhand which bottles (apart from the obvious) are made by Stako? As I think a lot of people now are going to be selling up and wanting to buy new ones...

lol. Yeah, i just feel sorry for all those poor guys who've just bought shiny new stakos, only to have to sell them on now, for probably a tenth of what they paid, if they can sell them at all....

How much for the bottle dude? test?

 

[Dusty]

tested till 2011, make me a sensible offer........

And no I won't trade a Stako hardly used for it

thats what I was wondering. It says that the MS and HPAC both agreed to ban the products, so I reckon it will include any event serviced by HPAC.

I cant see why HPAC would ban something for being dangerous in one event, but allow the same thing in another.

i would imagine that all of the main tourneys will take their lead from H-Pac and the milleniums.

who would realistically want to be the ones to allow the bottles to be used at their events??

Don't you all find it a bit odd that this (seems to be) the first time this has happened (or has been noticed) - to 13 bottles in 24 hours, after they've been on the market for a couple of years?

Due to the nature of compressed air bottles and hence the R&D and testing that go into having them manufactured and certified safely, I'm surprised that something like this could happen. After all - they are all Pi certified, just like every other euro bottle out there.

I'd be very interested to see an official statement with more details, especially with regard to use of them in them in the UK. I wonder what Stako have to say about the situation.

What other bottles are manufactured by Stako?
