Something sensible !!
Really love the MNR but isn't particularly practical if the weather isn't great and I want a bit of fun so I am going to give one of these
a go:

Anyone got any experience of these or know the company that has bought the rights to the kits - BikeBits R Us in Hereford.

I think that sounds like a plan with all the rain we have had

I have had numerous dealings with this firm over the last few years, they have always been reliable and helpful, I was aware that they had taken the
project on and if they are as thorough with this as they are with everything else it should be good
Hope that helps

Great idea, but a bit short in the wheelbase though to be able to make too much of the power increase, especially in the wet.
Disappointing video as well, doesn't make it look very quick really.

The longer wheelbased and lower roadster is an idal candidate. It has the same engine / subframe as the ForTwo but a larger engine bay. Better
handling and stability with all the power.
Does it have a reverse? Smarts are quite a bit heavier than a Sevenesque BEC.

£2,200 for a subframe sounds expesive. Or am I missing something?
7 out of 10 people suffer with hemorrhoids. Does that mean the other 3 enjoy them?

It does seem a bit on the expensive side when you think you can get a complete se7en type chassis for the same price.

There was a BE Smart at one of the Trackdays I was at down at Colerne Airfield. Fast in a straight line and then fell on it's side
