Default blue flame = s**t

i ordered a blueflame ti can for my new k5 2 weeks ago through my dealer and it still has'nt turned up so i phone blueflame and they say they have no record of the order so it has'nt been built or sent out but my dealer has a fax conformation of the order, so i cancelled the can today because of the crap service (i know i should have listened to everyone on hear but i now know never to deal with them again), so instead got my dealer to order a hi level ti remus revolution so it should be with me next week if remus have one in stock if not it could be up to 3 weeks .
should have ordered that in the first place i would have got it by now.
moral is never deal with blueflame they could'nt organise a p!ssup in a brewery

Scorpions sound very nice IMO. I was very happy with my Blueflame can but it wasnt the one I ordered (fortunately it was better)

It seems to be a 50:50 experience with those guys.

And quite right too. If they could pull finger how much easier life would be

TBH Im starting to doubt the durability of BF cans anyhow. A few seem to pop rivets and come apart a bit.

Ive had the pleasure of hearing both, although Remus on K3s and Scorpions on old fangeld ones. The Remus seems loader in total dB as proven by the Rubberduckie or Coombest if I remember correctly. But the Scorpion on the curvey of Monkey has a fine deep tone which I really like. Ive not heard a new Scorpion with removable baffles.

But TBH this is splitting hairs, youll be happy with either.

I love the sound of the Remus Revolution... To me Scorpions are too rough, they're loud as anything but they sound a bit like a bit's dropped off your bike. CCC's the closest thig to Blue Flame that doesn't just dissolve over time I'd say...
