I'm guessing not the same lift for sure. It might be something similar, but it definitely won't be as good as the RD lift.

The front might be the same basic method though, but I don't know what the rear will be like. Got any pics?

I know the guy and his work. He as good stuff at low prices. It is no where near as thick as the RD kit but will work fine. His 3 inch is a true 3inches of lift. The RD kit is about 2inches. I know several bikes that run the extreme 3 inch and they have not had a problem yet. I feel that it is way too steep of an angle on the axels though. It is amazine how much less stress .5 inchs will make on the axels. Extreme makes a 2 inch lift as well. Good luck.

Extremeatver makes a replica of the "Perfex" lift kit for a Rincon. He just makes his in 2" and 3" sizes I believe while the Perfex lift kit comes in just 1.5" I think. He claims his material is thicker than the Perfex kit which it might be, I'm not sure. I had the Perfex kit on my old bike and the brackets actually bent so it is junk.IMO

If you want the best lift for a Rincon go Rubberdown.JMO

Oh by the way I've tried just about every lift out there for a Rincon including High Lifter's, Perfex lift, Moose lift and the Rubberdown and found that the Rubberdown was the easiest to install and was by far superior in design and grade A material.

His lift is a good lift...but if you're a small guy...will cause problems due to the angles.
I agree though...there is none stronger than the RD lift.

Sorry I missed your post until now (now that its too late to sway you my way LOL), I'm sure you will be happy with the kit you got, I understand it is probably the second best rincon kit out there ;) :bolt:

dcfox is right I'm like 245 my Rincon looks fine when I'm on it,but on the other hand when my wife rides it alone axles look stressed sets kinda bow legged just watch them when you get it installed

The guy is a nice enough guy, for real he is, he has scooped up a lot of my business with a cheaper made design and he sells a lot of them. Mine is just a lot heavier duty, no plates, all solid steel machined to suit. You wouldnt find a heavier duty Rincon kit out there than mine, thats kinda my mind set for all my kits, make it heavy duty so you know its not EVER gonna break LOL...

Yeah I wish I had waited and gotten Paul's kit to begin with. After about $300 in different lift kits for the Rincon I found Pauls and his was by far the best one I'd tried.
