    They are in stock @ FCPU. Only in 6 fittings retail packs though. $36-39. All include the wrench.

    The Chrome and Black Chrome are just like every other fitting. The Matte Black and Matte White are very durable powder coating, and the other colors are a plating process over a base layer of nickel. The colors are slightly more delicate then harde chrome but as long as your a tiny bit careful with the wrench they are fine.

    The next run will hopefully get EU distribution.

    Guess I am not entirely sure what you mean, but no =)

    They sell in singles also. I am guessing they just have not added them to their cart yet.

    A non-render pic from FrozenCPU. The individual fittings are $7-$8. So it is quite a bit cheaper to go w/ the 6 fitting + wrench retail pack. If they are indeed powdercoated then they should also be very difficult to chip.

    Yep, the only ones I do not see are the green ones. The blue ones look awesome.

    Only the matte black and matte white are powder coated. They have a lot of excellent pictures posted at Frozen and Performance and if you look at the close ups you can see the powder coating texture on the black and white. The rest are nickel plated. I really love the matte finish so I may do a run of the other colors in the matte powder coating at some point in the future.

    Also, for the guys in Australia KOI Tech's shipment left yesterday so we got you covered =)

    I know the "Window" was more for styling, but that's actually something I'm happy to see for s. If your tubing was slipping out of place, in a normal compression you can't tell, but with the window you do actually have some visual confirmation that the tubing is push all the way in as it should be.

    Those barbs also look nice and deep unlike your normal compression which has nothing more than a slight bump for a barb.

    I'm also just happy to see something very different in style. These look really good!

    I honestly never noticed this. But that is rather important.

    I really like this design. This is the first time I've felt like compression fittings were worth the price tag.

    Are the Red ones a more true red than the pic on PPCS? Seems to show fairly pink-ish?
