So does anyone have one ATM or had one in the past?

What's your opinion?
What's the build quality /customer service like?

Also has anyone used the Hammerschmidt system?
What are its advantages over the standard system?

    I've never used a hammerschmidt, but theyr'e supposed to be pretty reliable.
    Hammerschmidt basically means you won't drop your chain, you still get two gears up front, and you get massive amounts of clearance.

    Though they are pricey (not an issue with the YT full builds), and they may be complicated to service etc, I'm not sure as I'm not familiar with them.

    Came very close to buying a Tues 2.0 from them but wasn't overly impressed with their pre-sales customer service

    My questions about different models, weight, availability etc had to be chased up several times and even then were answered a bit vaguely.
