<DIV></DIV>&gt;Please excuse the ignorance but.... Does the SA5 speed have a
<DIV></DIV>&gt;freeway-cruising-at-low-engine-revs-gear or a climb-up-the-goat-trail
<DIV></DIV>&gt;-really-slowly gear ?

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;I would like to purchase a South African 5 speed. Please p-mail me if
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;available.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;Hey Gary,
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; Why not come to Australia for a holiday and take one home in your
<DIV></DIV>&gt;suitcase.
<DIV></DIV>&gt; All manual waterboxers sold here were 5 speed and with our $ running
<DIV></DIV>&gt;at about
<DIV></DIV>&gt; $0.58US it'll be cheap holiday and a relatively cheap gearbox...:)
<DIV></DIV>&gt; I can even point you in the direction of a reliable gearbox
<DIV></DIV>&gt;builder...
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; Just a thought,
