That was what I liked about the electric conversion, you could keep a mechanical brake
This thing has tires that feel like the cheapest foam you have ever seen, not very dense and dry as could be. The fronts are uber narrow. It still grips better than any pan car I have driven on a unswept rough street. I've driven 12e, 12i, 12L, 10L and tons of Bolinks and never had one that you could actually pull the trigger on without spinning violently. Pretty fun car I have to say. The only saddle pack I have is a old 2000 that has leaked and is pretty sketchy. I still don't know what turn motor this thing has but it's not terribly hot
And lastly, Mark if it wasn't for you and your crazy idea of putting the electronics IN the cars I would probably still be racing them on the shelves!
