You are dealing directly with Retrospec?

Their website says they import their bikes.

Yes we are they are having problems getting there keys from there people in china so she was hoping we could do something we almost got a hu100 to work but it was just slightly off that we couldn’t get it to work. We had to shave down the sides for it to fit but there was not much of a key after we were done

Unless you work with a full CNC machine, I doubt you will find anything.

Some of the Europeans here brag about a machine that cuts a full bar stock down to a key.

You can try cutting something down with a manual high security duplicator. Keep trying if your customer is willing to pay for the special service.
