This is the Start of my DP GL Plus Firebird Freestyler build.

Just need a few bits to finish it.


This shows the Dual routing holes ant the rear of the GL Plus. Normally there is only the routing hole at the bottom

The way my cable is routes is the Prototype models routing. Glyn Lewis got his foot caught in the cable doing a frame stand, before they were released so the production model only had the hole on the bottom. I have no idea why this frame has both of the holes at the back but the rear brake works much better routed this way. Ed. will only have the bottom hole in his GL Plus.

He doesn't need any of the holes as he hasn't routed his cable through the frame diggler
