Well I have a Tekno Neu 1515/1.5D/F that the rotor shattered into pieces.Now I have had this motor for 2 years and Neu fixed the motor free under warranty.I just paid shipping.

That's great but when I emailed them I was told not more than half the motor's price. That's us$120.

Abnew tekin is us$140 only.

Send me your motor so I can use it as a paperweight in my office.

I m sure neu is better than castle as it's hand made but I still think castle is cheaper n built for off road.
