Ah, thanks for the tip. I was doing a bit of that, tightening in the farther out areas, and it has around an eight of an inch of runout currently. A little more than I'd like, but if it becomes problematic I'll definitely use your trick.
Weather permitting, I'll hopefully be able to test this thing out in the parking lot before long. I live at an apartment, which makes things a little difficult lol. I'm on the third level so getting it down to the parking lot will be annoying. My biggest concern is noise... How loud are these things? I hear they're quieter than a lawnmower, which isn't too bad. The parking lot also runs parallel to a pretty substantial city street, so I'm sure people won't think much of the noise.
Oh, to avoid creating another thread, I might as well ask this here. The handlebars are getting a little crowded with two brake levers, a clutch lever, and the throttle. I'm considering moving to just one brake. Is that a bad idea? I'm sure it is, lol. But, if I have just one brake, which one should I use? It seems like most people here recommend using at least the front brake, but I'll be riding this on dirt roads with much less traction. Because of that, I'm thinking it would be safer to use only the rear brake, perhaps?
