How many of you have wrecked your kit? I know a lot of people are going for the euro look where they have small wheels and big drops, but how practical is it? surely it'd get wrecked just reversing off the drive, let alone when you have to go over a speed hump!

am I wrong? or have you had many a incident and thats just 1 problem with having this style?

Thanks,

yes reversing off drive can cause some damage





also find it better to reverse ON drive, and just pull off - dont catch as much that way
