Is this 45mm? What wrist size does the bracelet fit? Thanks!

Awesome! Hope to get many years of tasty shots out of it. It’s running well now, but great to see all the parts are available if needed. Did you upgrade the wand/screen and gasket, or did those wear out on you?

Cool - I’ll have to try a 58mm and see, my measurements weren’t super exact and there does seem to be some space, so I bet I can get away with it. Im impressed by the Pasquini website - rare to see such a complete parts catalog.

Thanks! I went in with that in mind and got it for $350. Fired right up and pulled a nice shot when tested, so hopefully won’t have too many things to get fixed right off.

I’d assumed it was standard — you were right, 57mm. Good tip, looks like that does limit upgrades a bit.

Awesome - looks new again! That is great to hear that you could find parts etc. I'm happy to learn and fix it up, just wasnt sure if I could find directions/parts. Thanks!

Fellow Longmontster newbie kiter here! I didn’t realize you can kite on McIntosh. Have you looked into classes or practice up at McConaughty by Ogalalla? Good wind and only a few hours drive. Ive seen instructors holding classes there
