    Any idea what it would take to properly proportion the brakes with capri disks in the rear?

    I had been thinking about getting an aspire for the brake swap and a spare motor... looks like the capri might be a better step up.

      The Aspire front and rear brakes are plenty for the Festy. If you want to go for Capri front and rear brakes for the coolness factor, that's one thing; but for practical use, the Aspire plan is much easier and just as good IMO. Plus you get broader wheel availability with the Aspire 4x100 hubs.

      And I have Capri front brakes BTW.
