Geno and I in Las Vegas have used Gene's socket a few times to readjust the head bearing nut on a few bikes here. So far so good. Never met Gene, but have been a loyal customer of his products since he came on board with the Voyagers. Don't have a second thought when it comes to considering getting anything from Gene, He's a perfectionist when it comes to his work...

Hey Gene
I'm new here so I am not sure how to contact you, But if you have any of those spanner sockets you are making not spoken for I sure would like to purchase one. If they are already sold let me know how to get put on the list for the next batch and how to get payment to you.

Thanks
Steve
