    I'm putting together a(nother) Ridley! Still not sure whether I want DA or the new RED on it.

    I'm very jealous. That's a beautiful bike.

    They've been around longer than most people realise. In California HPV racing, Tom Traylor has been one of the most impressive builder/riders. Here's a sample from his website describing the benefits of FWD.
