I have read that specs will chatter until they are broken in. But ya they are stiffer than centerforce

I bought my tires off ebay

I have a spec stage 2 and it never chattered, its very smooth. The stage 2 would be plenty for your setup. Only thing about the Centerforce dual friction is it's only made for mild competition applications and I think that's where people go wrong. If you want a Centerforce you can beat on maybe try the DFX, I think i'm going with that next time.

If you want a light pedal do NOT get a Spec. I wouldn't waste your time on a King Cobra.

i had a spec stage 3 in my fox and i always thought it was an awesome clutch. granted you HAVE to break it in for 500 miles at least that means no launching or abusing it till then if you treat it right it'll be a great clutch. they gave me a peice of paper that said that you must do the 500 mile break in so i listened and it turned out great
