I got an email that the 818 is On Sale at Factory Five! I think this is the first time the 818 kit has been on sale so if you are on the fence, jump quickly. This Sale is only through December 31, applies to 818S, 818C or 818, and includes free wheels or $500 off. The full amount is not necessary until your kit is near the ship date, which you can specify, so jump this week if you are leaning.
