Why 4011 on front? Balance, transport: ability to remove front wheel and therefore put it on roof rack on car, ability to keep rear cassette, all wheel drive on hills as opposed to just rear wheel drive, ability to convert bike back to regular ride easily. Why massive torque, to climb the 18% road grade on some of the fire roads. Our welder is going to help me make up a set of fork stabilizers similar to those above that will disperse the torque and take the full weight of the bike in the event of a failure. I imagine that as Crystalyte makes the 4011 in this configuration 1: they must have intended it to be used, 2: therefore I must not be the only one in the world using it.
