pfrederi 17,741 #5 Posted March 29, 2012 What kind of abuse causes that to happen? It is hard to get 8 speeds to shift high to low. you have to be fully stopped and sometimes you have to let the clutch in and out a couple times before she will slip into gears. These are straight cut gears after all. Some people are impatient and push hard on the high low lever. The fork is not very strong (not one of WHs best designs I think) and easily bent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
