A buggy buddy of mine had one of these for a while. It was a fun little machine. He didn't like the narrow side to side wheel base. It made the buggy feel top heavy. he added wheel spacers which improved the stability a lot. A set of wheels with more outside offset would accomplish the same. Never liked that bulky front mass of tubing. it added a lot of weight on the front and the buggy was prone to dig in when the suspension was compressed. The double chain gave a little aggravation. The chains stretched independently. He could never keep good tension on both at the same time. One or the other were always a little floppy. I think he simply removed one. He had planned to redo the front end and a axle conversion but sold the buggy before he got around to it.
