The f&f is back from SBD now. Just gotta get the decals off Carl and find some 9/16 spindles for the pedals. Should be ready for the big reveal at MK.  :daumenhoch:

The easiest way to find spindles is to get hold of some beat up triple trap pedals. They normally quite cheap and work without any mods.
