I have spoken to the great Doc, and asked him about the possibility of some torque arms made specifically for those of us using the NuVinci N171B & Developers kit (2nd generation 350% NuVinci Hubs) and possibly the new N360 (not sure of the dimensions of it's axles, I'll call Fallbrook Tech in the morning).
Anyway, Doc says we need to do a minimum production run of 12 sets and I am able to swing that on my own, but I don't need that many yet, so I am wondering who else would be interested in some?
Not exactly sure how much he will need per set for this first smaller production run (the larger the run, the cheaper the TA's, the smaller, the more expensive they are for him to get made) so I will defer to the Doc on what he feels is the best price for these.
These will have a 12mm axle with 10mm flat TA's for the freewheel side and 10mm axle with 8mm flat TA's for the brake side that will be mounted with the same high strength epoxy that Doc uses for his larger one as described here at his selling thread:

Anyhow, let me know if any of you using the N171B NuVinci or the recent $150.00 Developer's kit specials (this is the same N171B hub with a electronic shifter instead of manual) and want to beef up your drop outs with one of if not THE best commercially available Torque Arms (these are designed for super E-Bikes putting out in excess of 5,000 Watts!! ) on the market for your new NuVinci project.
Thanks!
