Farmer_Dave Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Come and fly mine if you want to try it. Then try the rest and make your own mind up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a Fresh Breeze Sportix about a year now. Piers Dent is the importer and will answer any calls or mails immediately or soon after. http://www.freshbreezeuk.com/ He has actually kept in regular contact with me since I bought the machine from him and is a genuine guy who wants to provide good quality equipment and doesn't rely on paramotoring to make a living. Any queries / problems I have had have been sorted streight away. The Germans are thorough and build good quality machines. Piers has been dealing with them for many years now. I can only say I have been more than happy with service and backup from Fresh Breeze. Good luck and let us know what you end up with. Whitters.

fanman Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 For a bigger guy you'll rarely go wrong with a Fresh Breeze. Get one with either the Sportix set up or the excellent comfort bar mid system. The high soft J bars are ok but the other systems are nicer to live with and don't need the brake lines and pulleys adjusted. The only other ones worth looking at are the simo engined Flat Top and Kobra Rocco. These are both good machines however support for the Kobra is yet to be properly tested in the UK. The Flat Top is very well supported in the US but you may have to get bits sent over rather than getting them from a UK supplier. The Flat Top would probably have sold in greater numbers in the UK if it wasn't associated with Dell. If I was you I'd test a regular simo engined Sportix and a regular Flat Top. Both standard models will fly your weight better than you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignos Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 thanks for the advice guys, i like the sportix but piers said that it would be running at the top of its range and to go for the monster, would you agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
