What if you decide one day to run slicks? THen you will want the better FD to get a better launch, especially if you can hold the traction.
It just turns out simpler in the long run.

I guess I said it too harshly when I said it isn't an option. It IS an option that I would say is best avoided unless you have lots of power or are tuning a highway ride or etc. But for 99% of the DIYrs it is not an otion.




Tom, I wasn't trying to advocate it, I was explaining how it functioned as it does, as the poster above had asked. Sorry if it seemed that way.
