so they've worked hard at it and then; they invented the hydraulic brake gyro :D
but you cant run gears with it, or else it would be useless, so single speed is a necesity

thing is, if they invented cable brake gyros, why cant they create one suitable for gear cable? that would allow a mtb to function for trails and jumps/freestyle(whatever ya wanna call it) SO WHY CANT THEY/HAVENT THEY MAKE ONE? eh :roll:

    why would you want one?

    Oh and the reason is the cost to make one that worked would make it too expensive. The accuracy needed would be prohibitive.

    Just run long cables.

    i just thought it would be better than having singlespeed for a brake gyro as i'd prefer gears

    wouldent it be like a brake gyro? or would it work difrently

    then again long cables aint a bad idea :lol:
