Rimmer Brothers UK supply a 'premium' synchro that I have used for quite a
while. Good quality and no issues!

Synchro Ring - Premium Quality Item No: 113431X

Subject: [Fot] TR6 syncro rings

i know this has been dealt with recently but i want to make sure of others
experiences before i order. Moss USA advertise a 'premium ring" saying

*"Our Premium synchro rings are the closest to original Triumph quality we
can find. They require a couple of hundred miles to fully bed in. Made in
Germany"*

Why do they need bed-in time if the inner cone is the correct angle and
size??. we never used to bed them in, just take them out of the packet and
fit to a gearbox. perfect every-time,  till cheap copies started appearing.

Interestingly, Wishbone Classics, a UK vendor, has this to say about it

*The reason one of our competitors sells their synchronizer with the warning
that "They require a couple of hundred miles to fully bed in" is because
they're made incorrectly with the wrong inner cone angle.  Instead of fixing
the problem, our competitor simply wants you to wear your synchronizers in
to match the gear cone angle. *

Where are the FOT archives?? My searching for this subject can only find
references back several years ago.
