Of the first 200 Vectis groups that were forged in the UK only 113 were usable
This is unacceptbale so we moved the production of the lever groups to Italy
This demanded a high five figure investment in new tooling and a total loss on the old tooling
Not a single dimension has changed.
So, did the Vectis have serious issues at launch?
Yes, but not one of them was identified by the jester Lance Hedrick
Funny old world.
