Howdy Folks

The other week, I was very surprised to learn that slipper clutches are 'technically' allowed in DD and that most of the top 5 were running with them.

I thought that part of the ethos of DD, is that it is supposed to be a cheap series. A slipper clutch costs about half the price of your average bike (yes... complete with cool 3-spoke chopper wheels...). Is it a cheap series... or becoming like most other race classes: the one with the deepest pockest has the best chance of winning.

Your feelings?
