Couple of Vids


First one's not brilliant, but it just gives you an idea how good the front Leading Link is, I was running Barrows in the Cheetah doing well over 40mph when we came across these gulleys 5-7" deep, the leading link certainly take the sting out and note my feet hardly move

The second vid is my new big buggy, I have gone back to basics with a twist......old school....some times I think you need to do something like this to be able to move on.....the buggy has 42mm O/D side rails and a 16640mm cranked rear axle, clamped so that I can raise or lower the ride height easily

Oh and it comes in at 125 1/2lbs

Does the new buggy weigh 57kg as in the title or 67kg as is written in the film?

The front link looks like it works very well, have you had to change the rubber nubbies out yet? or are the first ones still holding?
The new buggy looks awsome, and the idea with the rear axle is great.
I'll send you an email later on, I think we need to talk!

lol yeah my mistake...it weighs in at 57kgs, and if by nubbies you mean the elastomers, then yes they are still the first ones, and show no sign of any wear.
