i dunno about the motor work, i bought like 4 ott brake lever from them and so far havnt tried them on, i went to install one last night and im having problems with it fittin right, i might have to grind down a little more so it will pull on the brake arm, My brother just bought the rear swingarm and shock kit for 600 off ebay, and the 209$ rear rim/disc brake kit, the rim didnt have a rimlock hole in it

and have tested the suspension yet, will deff keep you update if the brandxminis products are good

i hope they are

look at some of the replies on this thread a guy bought the stuff you talking about and had problems i guess

Brand X sent me one of their 1st generation rear suspension kits to test out, with that being said we were never able to test it as there were fitmit & tolerance/slop issues. We discussed several problems w/ the owner and he was very sore to our constructive critisim. Lots of potential for the price, just needed to tie up seversl loose ends which by "looks" (can't say that i've seen the new generation in person) ,they have taken some of my input and changed a few of the issues....

I'm in the process of installing the rear disc kit now so far I have had to mod the master cylinder bracket and now I am not to sure that the caliper mount is going to work with my sano swinger. and the rear wheel has no hole for a rim lock
