<font color='#000080'>Manifold and bands are nicely made and go together pretty easily. The bands are much wider than normal- 2.5&quot; so hold the cyls very firmly. Takes a little fiddling to get it set perfectly so when the bands are tight excessive pressure is not placed on the manifold but the local very nice man at divequip (www.divequip.co.uk) showed me exactly how to do it. Very much worth knowing as he showed me a set that had been put together by someone themselves and it was, quite frankly, frightening. I believe the valves are identical to the ones made for Scubapro, with the double barrel O rings rather than face seals. Agir make the centre section themselves and do a nice job of it, too. Comes in O2 clean with green O rings.

If you deal direct, the people at Agir are very helpful, especially Thor. You can also save the VAT if you purchase through a company (if you can). Shipping all the way from Sweden was cheaper than from GoDive 5 miles away in Derby (only 13 quid).
