However what interests me is the in sourcing of cylinder manufacture. Would be nice if they would consider replacing hard chrome bores with niksil. Doing so in both the Sweden and USA facilities would allow for cross pollination of the US and world markets.

Again, interesting that they are investing in these locations, versus China, Mexico, etc.

Had to look up the difference between nikasil and  chrome: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikasil.  Sounds like a cost issue?
