ha ill have to look into those power one's. i do know the tread life of a shinko isnt that high, but ill mainly be racing it so i guess im not too concerned about that. my gearing will be 16/43 for the moment. i do have a set of extensions but i may just throw them on until i can scrape together the funds to get it done by spencer cycle.
does the underbrace affect traction any? if so hows the holeshot compared from extensions to an actual arm?

they will never look as good as a arm, but think, $1,100 or @250... you get put that other $850 into something else. hell, thats almost a set of wheels! then you can be stretched and have some good wheels

a stock swingarm extended by spencer cycles is around 500 bucks. That's what i'll most likely end up doing instead of buying a mac arm when i decide that i need more wheelbase. Maybe in a year or so i'll decide to go to about 69"  .
