may get a move on to higher things later. You sounded a little disappointed at my suggestions for Rippletto brakes but I think they will stand up to cost analysis against anything except possibly hydrostatic brakes, & I believe we agree to leave this over just for the present, until we know more of its disadvantages, if any. | ||
