I can recommend this two-stage pulley:

If you want one, contact Chris via his website and ask for the postage to you:

Good luck!

(Don't mention me 'cos he'll double the price!)

Indeed Mike - I've got one on the SE2a I built up from bits...



The pulley's well made and fits 'snuggly' with enough of a gap between the firebox to get a drive band on.

(Not quite as good as Ian's repro pulleys however!  respect)

Ive seen some of CJWs stuff up close, very well made, although some of the items I think are a little too blingy for me!
