I've not tried that myself, you might be the first to try it out :)

The c5000 has twin disc brakes on the front wheel and suspension, taken off a scrapped small Chinese motorbike .

Hi Ton, look at this auction:

http://www.ebay.es/itm/200600112522?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_2764wt_1029

Looks lighter than brinkmotoren one and even cheaper :D

Regards, Rafael
