Anyone know how I can get one of these in the US?

http://www.speed-of-color.de/index.php?cat=PR ...

There website is I think in German, can't read it.  I tried using Google Translate but uses German PayPal payment.  I also can't get a hold of them on the phone and won't return my emails.

- just follow the cart till you come to a screen where it asks your login.

- there, take the follow the upper box, as you are a guest and did not buy anything yet.

- fill in your details and proceed

- choose paypall and mark the red text 'bitte anklicken'

- that you'll have a screen that shows what you are about to order. click bottom right 'bestellung senden'. this confirms your order.

i can't go any further, since i do not want the tail...

Thx LeFox.  Unfortunately none of that matters.  Jen from SOC finally replied back to me.  They won't ship to US.  They claim they don't want their products in Mexico or US at this time.

well, if you can collect a few people who would like them, maybe i can look into buying a few myself and sending them over to the u.s. ?

that's off the record

THAT'S STRANGE! I ordered a taillight from Speed Of Color on Feb 26th, and I live in California.  They've shipped it, but I have not yet received it.  I used a google web page translator to be able to read every bit of German, and it seemed to have worked just fine.  I'm expecting the package to be shipped within 14 days.  I hope they're sending it, because I don't know how to say "I need a refund" in German! haha. j/k
Click here for a language translator by GOOGLE.COM
and
This is what I ordered from SPEED OF COLOR.

Hope this helped.

That is a nice undertail for sure.  Very similar to the Ermax undertail for the Firebolt.  You should check to see if Ermax makes one for the Lightning too.

ermax only makes undertails for the xbr.

Well that sucks big time LeFox.  I love that tail and I was so happy when I bought my bike and it had it on there.  Less aftermarket I have to put on it.

well, i listed details for both just above your post

i like both, but the 's' model a bit more
not just because the lights are in the case, but they are aimed at that someone behind you & not to the sky, which is less visible.
+ the fact that you order it as a set

I would definitely like to get one of those tails from Speed-of-Color.  I ordered one, but I too was told they wouldn't ship to the U.S.

LeFox, would you be interested in ordering a couple?

I have also tried ordering a very similar piece from Pro Carbon.  I was told it was shipping last week, but my card hasn't been charged and they will not answer my emails.

I really like these dual light tails... they're ten times sharper than any others out there IMO.
