Hi as we all know those GTS insulated tubes are big bucks, is there any genuine tubes that are made of plastic and don't neck down like a venturi available? So a consistant straight through design. If so please which model are they from and if there is a part no please post it if you could.
Thanks Greg

My early euro had laminated aluminum foil & paper tubes. I think they were repaced by the venturi style... ? You may need to go with aftermarket or the Mercedes style if you want straight through. What do you find disagreeable about the venturi style?

Usually I mentally associate "some guy on ebay" with less desirable sorts.
I may have to adjust my thinking. Dave Lomas is no "some guy", that is for certain!
Schocki's looks great!

Any noticeable difference in performance with your 'GTS style' tubes?

Where did you get the materials to make yours, Alan? I like the smooth 'stealth' look they have.
Dave's look like a quality choice for the price.
