Where did you score the kit from Troy?
I have been thinking about putting a cooler on the Mav for ages. It would most definately help it out when its under load on a hot day.

im going from the 10.5" organic hd clutch to a 10.5 brass cushion button clutch..

the last clutch was rated to 280rwks and was just starting to slip after a hard time.
the cushion button is rated to 350rwks so next thing to fail is the t5..

Glad you've decided to stick with it Troy!
There's not many clean eb/ed's around anymore and the clean ones unfortunately aren't worth much so theres no point selling really :/
Just make the ED faster :D

I feel the same, glad your keeping it Troy.

There is some gear you can get to toughen up the T5, from the states, if you need to rebuild the spare box, would keep you going until a TKO is within reach.

Cheers
