Hello from Slovenia
Is there something new about boots for 07/08? When will be possible to try T 700 boots? I need new ones , because my raichle 323 are way to soft for me.
Maybe dump question, but why Deeluxe didn`t put spring to T 700?

Great! Thanks Hans.
I know that somewhere is already written, but what are the main advantages if springs are on boot?

More flexibilty and possibilities to try with different springs and settings so you have a dynamic boot which can absorp the uneven terrain to your wishes, stiffer or softer, faster or slower and so on. The 5-leanmechnism is not dynamic, but a static system.
If you go to the forum from bomberonline you can find lot of topics about the bomberspringsystem (BTSkit) which I also have (best buy last year besides my Tinkler board)
For example:

On those new (ugly color) Indys have no springs anywhere, flexing is based only to reformation of boot plastic which is very temperature dependent.
So if you want stiff boots, ride only in very cold days

New Indy's dont have any springs, so whole boot flex is coming only from deformation of boot plastic. And that is very temperature dependent ie colder it is more stiffer boot is. Sorry if i am/was unclear with my comment
Reference to color is just personal comment related to real ugly look of new Indy's.

Now i understand, but it is strange, that Indy has no spring. Any ideas why?
Anyway...I am interested in T 700. From what i read on forum i need a spring:) I can get springs from old model of Indy...would be that ok?
Once i tried friend`s Indy and it was ok for my leg but a little to stiff, so I hope there won`t be much problems with T 700.

Yes, original spring sytem, RAB, will fit also new Indy's.
But as Hans wrote, Bomber spring sytems is real good one, it will beat original RAB 10-1

As far as I know you can exchange the spring system from 325 Ltd or Indys with the 5-positions static system. I prefer the spring myself so if I buy Suzukas (though I like the Ferrari colour of the new T700 in contrast to Pokkis) I'll keep my old shoes and swap the spring/5-pos system.
Board? Just a Choc, 180...

Just phoned and emailed some with the girls from Deeluxe this weekend and today. Was to late to order hardboots CUSTOM 1000

. They were customized to individual clients, mostly racers. They were sold out with Deeluxe. Sold my Raichle/Deeluxe 600's to Jiri

for a little price.
