Spun. my first intentions were to go with a hand shift/foot clutch so i wanted another brake for hills plus i like the looks of a spool. And yes either brake will lock the wheel up. The brake with lines and the bracket and calipers and master cyl all together cost me around $600. a little pricey but it is the brakes id rather be able to stop good than go good.

Please excuse my ignorance but I was wondering what the second calipers purpose is? Will one not lock it up? Does it improve modulation or performance in some way? Don’t get me wrong, it looks killer and is a nice unit and I would think about using it for that reason alone. I like the safety wire to, nice touch. Just trying to learn all I can, thanks.

Im wondering if you would have the time to post a how to on your pluming for the external oil filter. I have seen this before and have been wanting to do the same. With the filter on the outside I beleave it would make a great filter , cooler, combo , pluse I just like the industrial lookof it.
Thanks Russ

Jeff, the drop-seat hardtail is sick-ass! Patent it and sell the design to T.C.Bros. or start crankin’ ‘em out yourself, ’cause the look totally rocks! Very distinctive. So’s the rest of the bike. The plumbing looks complicated, but cool. Super job.
