    mostly it's my accelration thats troubling me but hey while i'm on about it

    first problem is that my acceleration is really sluggish until about ten miles an hour when my sports exhaust kicks in, i was wondering if there is anything i can buy or change to sort that out cause i can't wheelie at all with it. it will kick in a couple of times straight away when i turn it on for the first time in the morning say.

    second problem is sometimes when i'm going along at 40 my ped might randomly decide to lose power, so it drops down to thirty then picks up again almost straightaway. i have absoloutely no idea what could cause this problem. cheers for any input.

    also i was wondering about the restrictor in a laser xpro. is it just the cone in the downpipe?

    specs:
    56 jog rr
    derestricted variator
    3.5 gram rollers
    laser x pro
    top speed = 45 mph :/

    thanks again

    is it harder with a drum? i couple months ago i asked if you could convert rear drum to disc and if you can how easy is it. do you know if you can?

    well you need a gd grip on the bars and theres no way your gonna pull a drum back with 1 finger cos the rest of your fingers are in the way lol spose you could always drop an aerox lump in it, jog wud look sick with rox wheels

    every bike ive ridden with a drum brake seems difficult, you have to pull the lever right back to the bars for it to do anything, maybe just the bikes ive ridden but i dont rate them tbh

    i was all up for an aerox lump in my ped but i'd have to change the front forks and all cause i think there is a different fitting from a rox wheel speedo cable mudguard etc.

    methinks that the jog and rox wheels are different sizes and so to avoid looking somewhat of a bellend i'd have to put both rox wheels on mine right?
