    Default Re: Gear Choice Thoughts

    I offer a correction, and a different perspective.....

    Cabane gear no longer uses bungles... it uses die springs. It is virtually maintenance free.

    in my opinion, cabane gear looks way better than grove gear. For me, that is important.

    I also believe you can upgrade the cabane gear to monster shock as well. I believe the gear legs and upper cross members are identical. So if you want good looks and upgrade capability, you may consider the cabane gear.....

    Attached is a picture of my plane when I was building it, showing the gear and the yellow die springs....
