Grove gear for the KR is at http://www.groveaircraft.com/kr2.html . It looks like it's gone up to $770 recently, but it's still the way I'd go if I were doing it again. They will custom make them to whatever dimensions you want, and if you break it they'll replace it for free forever.
It should be mentioned that Diehl (or Grove) fixed gear ends up being lighter, and the plane flies faster after ditching the retracts. Why? Because the retracts don't actually retract all the way. Ground clearance is also awfully low with the retracts. There's a reason why you don't see many with stock retracts anymore...
