The new MRP SB-3 is based on the current System 3 design but uses a one-piece stamped boomerang in place of the CNC machined light alloy boomerang in the System 3.

Duration Product Used:
3 months
Purchased At:
Chainreaction Cycles (Online)
Strengths:
Bomb Proof and 'Cheap as chips'. Simple as to assemble (Took me all of 5 Minutes!!). The instructions are brief and simple, but if you need to read them to work out how to mount it you probably shouldn't be buying it!!
Weaknesses:
Has a stamped boomerang not a CNC machined one. (as if it makes a difference where no one can see it anyway!!) Probably doesn't add any or much weight either. Hell, it's probably stronger anyway.
Similar Products Used:
E-13, Kee-Wee Sticky Ring.
Bike Setup:
Giant Faith, 8" Avid Jucy 7's, Azonic Front End, Marzzocchi Forks ETC.
Bottom Line:
Cheap as, Strong, Looks Dead Sexy (you cant see the fancy boomerangs on other guides, so what does it matter that this one is stamped!!) Buy it, Save a small fortune and enjoy its fantastic performance!!! ANYTHING ELSE IS A WASTE OF MONEY!!!
