Re: Rat Fink got a motor!!Finished "Now with VIDEO"

Thanks man!

Stopping is very important. And sadly the Roach doesn't agree with that fact. 5 brake cables have gone to the trash thanks to its inability to cooperate. :-/ So we are thinking of doing a drum setup on the front wheel for ol' school factor and function.
