They use the same belt, the only way to get there is to have pretty exact component locations and pulley tooth count. It's incredibly hard to get within 1.5mm on accident :lol:

B74 front hubs, metric ball studs but old school rear offset wheels? Seems a little half baked to me. Keep it old school or do a proper update not this half and half stuff.

:shock:

That's fuc*ed. It's not like they didn't have the resources to make a novel solution. It's one thing to run you out of the market with a similar design. It's another thing to run someone out with their own design.

Front hex wheel drive and rear cross pin? They should have done both ends the same. Also hex should have been gold
