Allen,
I don't know the TRF part but with the FX rate where it is, a UK-sourced one
at $500 is a steal. Al rads on the Revington and Cambridge websites are at
500 pounds! Sounds like it would be hard to go wrong, but suggest confirming
stock and price at the time of order.
I've been using an Al rad from Art Lipp this season. Very lightweight, fit
perfectly and had nice weld quality all around. Slightly lighter gauge tanks
than the earlier Griffin I smashed up. (I think the Griffin was a tad
overbuilt, the weight was similar to stock.) Unfortunately Art only has two
models at present, not TR6. It might be worth checking to see if a TR6 unit
is in the cards.
