A new belt sounds a bit cheaper than a new chassis - music to my ears! So does the rear end grip; I've been getting to grips with roll centres lately, so shouldn't be an issue dialling out a bit of grip with a few washers under the inner camberlink ballstuds.

I'll wait until I have the RS before I worry about battery fit - I think its safe to assume the 6000mah saddles I have been using won't fit!

I've been looking around for E4RS rubber carpet setups (the one posted a few posts back was frankly bonkers! I've no doubt it works, but there's probably a more sane setup out there that does the same thing!) - ride height 5mm f/r, 3 downstops f/r, 1.5 deg camber f/r sounds a good base to work from - any thoughts on springs or oil? I'll start with stock springs and the included 300 cst oil, or are they way too soft? I'll be nipping down to the music shop for piano wire to make antirollbars, too. I don't even have to bend it thanks to the design of the E4 sway bar assembly!
