adjusting the brake pads looks like a bastard
Ive been running the old space II set up for a long time,it works great with the suelo springs and the fly brake shoes,have had know issues at all,my only bitch is the short ass steer tube,but P.I.R is handling that for me with a custom set of my own, this new design looks amazing but i dont see it being very strong. big ups to Viki and kgb for the concept,i love mine!!!! and prob will never run a u brake again!
I personally don't see this working out very well for the reasons Byke mentioned. Although a great concept(I "kick" my brake when scuffing all to often), I was thinking more along the lines on refining drum brakes...built into the hub. Drum brakes are nothing new...but they were heavy and cumbersome in the 80's(when I first saw them) from my understanding. Byke...what's your take on Drum Brakes? Could the design by refined and made useful?
