In regards to the f-s-f-s-f-s-f arrangment of the plates, i have heard of this before but i don't think it is as good. Here is why, if you look at the fiber plat near the gear, the contact pattern does not take up the whole fiber plate, causing wear and loss of grip. The same thing happens next to the spring gear. Yes, there would be fiber contact area but i'm pretty sure it would wear out faster. That is why i did the gear-s-f-s-s-f-s-f-shim arangement, not mention you would have to either use a old fiber or get another new one some how. I'm happy with my arrangment, its easy to control and i don't even have traction control!
