AFAIK, pretty much everyone had zero stock. I'm frankly surprised that Goodwin had any...they must have dusted a set off from a corner somewhere. The new BJ's have the logo on top (this time), while the existing stock has it on the bottom cap. With the next shipment we'll be printing on the bottom cap again, so....

Why would you need to know? They all work. If you really, REALLY wanted to know, you could take a picture and send it to me and I'd tell you.

Are these still a thing? No one has them in stock, or an ETA. I'd love to buy a pair

I'll call them tomorrow. Hopefully they have them in stock, but FM doesn't, Supermiata doesn't, Goodwin doesn't, MiataRoadster doesn't, 5xracing doesn't.....makes me concerned they are out of production.

Circuit Sports offers and alternative. The ones we evaluated here appear good.
We developed an alternative with serviceable bearing and additional camber but they didn't work as well as we had hoped. So the revised version will be the same 5mm offset and non-serviceable as the others, but those are many months away. Long lead time.

Thanks Emilio, that solves my problem. I saw your posts about an ELBJ earlier this year, too bad iteration one didn't work as planned. So the Bauer Limited Production ones are no more?
