Hi Joe and others,
Okay so I made an assumption.
As you may have guessed I have never looked under a rotoflex GT6 in
sufficient depth to know that they used tele shocks not levers.
I therefore assumed that the roto GT6 would use the same set-up as the roto
Vittesse.
Proof ,I believe, of the saying to assume, to make an ASS of u and ME. 8-(
Back to the other subject I have looked under a Vittesse of a friend who has
a set of the adaptor brackets fitted with spax shocks
set pretty darn hard, he has had no cause for complaint about the strength
yet. I will agree that your idea sounds better and stronger
but is it necessary.
