build a bike that was truly unique and challenging so they decided to make
a hubless scooter. Roel spent countless hours in research, design and development
together with the crew at C&N Engineering who have never tried this before. But sheer
determination on Roel's part guided the team to come-up with a Custom Machined
Hubless front wheel assembly which was developed from multicab rims and the single side
lefty swing arm assembly was entirely made from scratch to accommodate the wheel and
also its disk rotor and caliper assembly was specially machined to go hand in hand with the
design. It is certainly a testament to Filipino ingenuity of finding ways to bring bright and
complex ideas into reality.
Modifications did not stop there as the brothers were not content with off the shelf upgrades
to the engine so they installed an ATV turbo charger system imported from UK and custom
machined the components to fit their engine setup. To keep the high performance engine
cool they installed a custom machined intercooler from a car
to compliment their turbo system. For the rear suspension the brothers did a custom made
mono-shock system specially designed for their bike. For the exhaust system they had the
exhaust manifold specially made to accommodate the ball bearing turbo assembly and the
exhaust canister is from YYPang Exhaust.
The brothers would like to thank R.U.A motorparts, Genwin concept motorparts,
Motowerks City Customs, Mio Nation and DDM for helping them secure the parts needed
for their bike.
