Perhaps AnkleWork's comment was a bit harsh but I share what I think are his thoughts. You use the lowest end components in the bike industry. You then add far more power and forces then they were ever designed to handle. Then you also reject over 100 years of experience by rejection a front brake. You have had reasonable suggestions from getting better bike industry components to trying the field of motorized options (which is really what you're running). It's not a hard leap to understand why some of us are shaking our heads.

There have been other examples of out of the box Ops and their threads on this forum. Most are met with some skepticism and question. Very few take what we offer and turn out something of results and "value". As a life long LBS guy I can get pretty cynical with some of the plans/requests/questions/wants I get. Prove us wrong please and report back with your improvements and the results you see. Andy.
