I have a rad buggy and I think it is pretty good. It is better than my rockville was. lighter, stainless, better seat, foot pegs stay in place. The only problem will be what do I have to do to get bigfoot tires on it, especially the front. I got a killer deal on it too and that helps.

I see I ended up buying the metal tubing for the frame today and I am going to buy a 5 lugnut axle so I can change the tires from big fat, small and skinny or anything with 5 lugnuts. The only thing that kind stinks is that its square tubing. I think I am going to have it rhinolined also... Thanks for the info....

make sure you make the front fork big enough to take a bigfoot tire.

Find an old ATC frame and use the forks. I found that worked great. I can fit a 11" tire in there.

What's the ATC frame? Sorry...
