Those wheels are so much better suited for this thing. Very nice!

I agree.

Cool looking model! Really like the colour scheme.

What this set really needs is for the boom raising/lowering mechanism to be moved to the side (could be easily done with a couple gears) and then toss This piece on it so you have a nice crank to raise and lower much faster. i put one of these on my BWE and it was much better than spinning a gear. You also could probably fit this in that back part, and have both the light and your new crank be able to lift/lower the forks. Or you could use gearing that will make it raise/lower faster. I'm shocked the set wasn't designed like this to begin with
