Looks good, interested to see how your front 3 link will come out. Did you make all the brackets or purchase them from someone and are you going full hydro or sticking with high steer?

Dude, you should probably incorporate some tubing, the pink string looks pretty, but I don't think it will hold up!

Great build! But why no for all that work, why no rear disc brakes?

Also, i hear superglue will give you great flex, should be fine
