UGLY !!!!

When i first started riding i used to dream of owning one of those. :$

As for the Giant scooter type thing. What?! rather cool though.

The Monty with suspension, how long will it last like that? Surely it would break but if it is just scrap to you then awesome!

To be honest i'm not a fan of long Pythons. They just seem too long and silly. Although Monty's are perfect, almost!

yeh, its called a rotary disc brake , they originated for performance moto gp bikes .

but looks to waek and flimsy for a bike, the rotor is too thin !

Well, why should it be any thicker than a normal rotor? It probably already weighs way more than the wheel itself. And what a silly idea to mount the rotor on the rim... If the wheel isn't perfectly straight you'll get so much drag you probably won't be able to ride.

Some kind of crazy floating drive train full sus design. Somehow I think mongoose and GT have the weight/strength advantage over that thing. If the position of everything and the shock setups were right it might actualy ride pretty nicely (other than the vertical head angle!) Floating drivetrain bikes normaly do. Wouldn't wanna bail at speed though! you'd get impaled on bits of your own frame!

Edit: Not to mention is BUT UGLY!

i never said it should be thicker its just on motorbikes rotors are thicker so it works much better, personily i think it will never work on bikes.

it works very efectivley at heat distribution and rotor fade..........
