Inconsistent Mk1

Hi all

I have a mk1 rapid on ticket, purchased 2nd hand.

I'm finding it rather inconsistent and it does have a huge power curve.

I'd like Kev.G to have a look at it, as he is highly recommended as the man to go to.

How does one make contact with him?

Thanks in advance.

This the BEST to contact KevG.
He may not reply Right Away.... He is busy with Many Sick Rapids...

Since this is a second hand MKI, there can be many things that can cause this.
It could be caused from spring balance problem..
To a valve and port problem...
Maybe something simple as a Oil/grease contaminated Hammer.

Best to have the The Rapid Doctor look at her...Maybe even add a Reg to help things!

Go0d Luck,
Stuart

Met the legend that is Kev G, today  ;D

Worked his magic on my rapid (now working wonderful & much smoother to operate)

Also ordered one of his wonderful carbon fibre sound mods  8)

Really knowledgeable gentleman.

Once again, thanks Kev  :)
