Brake Mount Done. Fitted!

The bike is now ROLLING!!!
Today i got the bike into a rolling chassis and tested it downhill. It has a tighter turning radius with the new forks and smaller wheels. The rear suspension does not need to be changed because the angle is fine. Both forks and rear suspension are working well. Tested the brake mount pretty hard. Some really hard and strong force stopping. Mount has stayed firm and not moved/buckled/bent. I am very proud of the mount and how successful it is! :)
Here are some pictures of the mount and rolling chassis and the bike with the tank on  :o  i think it looks great!!!

EDIT: I mounted the brake mount at that angle because there was a mount for the suspension in the way, so it could not be at the same angle kelly stated. I find this angle pretty effective :mrgreen:
