We’ve replaced the meter with an AIM unit, so the speed gear isn’t needed. While we’re at it, we’re changing it to color.
We could swap in a bearing with a different inner diameter for even better results, but there’s no end to that, so we’ll keep it standard. The 75 is nice though!

We got tired of the pinched shape, so we designed a stepped-cut fork instead.

We’ve made sure it won’t corrode.
