I prefer front brakes that work....That's why there's TWO of them on stock dressers.

That's pretty wild stuff.. if anyone had a friend with a CNC machine and access to some serious plexiglass and what-not.. all you'd need is the brake system and a 3 piece rim to bolt it in to.. aside from the brake, could do much better than $5k
