Wow nice man. How does the turn in feel with the new brace installed? Have you thought about the rear brace? I'm so tempted to buy the OBX one.
Life would be enjoyable if it wasn't so painful to live.

Sharp turns feel rock solid with less body roll and it feels like you can run through them faster.

WARNING: DO NOT RUN THROUGH TURNS FASTER

Like I said, it's 70 bucks shipped and well worth the price. Is it the strongest/best performing/insert favorite measurement here? Dunno, I'm not that big a geek when it comes to this. I do know corners are much more fun now!

I haven't thought about the rear brace just yet . hmmm . . . .
