Flexifoil Psycho Replacement Parts

Sat Mar 02, 2024 1:10 am

Hi, I'm a new member and came here hoping for advice on replacement parts for a Flexifoil Psycho.  I dug out my ancient Psycho only to find that the four leading edge rubber fittings had disintegrated.  Does anyone know where I can obtain replacements?  Thanks in advance for any advice.

The originals haven't been made for 20 years but they're nothing special, you could try calling Skybums or the Highwaymen (not sure if they're still going) they might have old stock

Otherwise Decathlon do what looks like an APA clone https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/6-mm-conn ... mc=2882077
You'd need to note the position of the spar and adjust the C clips to get the height right.

I had a rummage but I couldn't find any good ones, they were pretty poor so I think I binned them all in favour of TW & APAs years ago
