Spoke to Chris Grainger about this ,& he said very very little noticible difference in it`s use
he stay`s with fixed centre most of the time even whe he changes from spool to one-way

centre on-way gives you the same as front one-way but on a lesser scale

no they are similar but they have 1mm extra spacer in hub between bearings, plus longer thread.

I got my Bd today, but for some reason the wheels seem to be rubbing on the ball joints and the screw holding a pin in at the front.

I'm sure it shouldn't be doing this so is there anything I can check to try and resolve the problem?

Thanks
Rob

Any more thoughts?
Thanks for the ones so far

Thats got everything to do with it. It would have been handy to know before

Most people here havent tried the HPI frontend and probably cant help too much.

Hi,

please post a picture.
I'm running the HB suspension for a while now and I never had a problem with it.

Cheers
