I am planning on buying a new CCT today, but just wanted to get your guys opinion on a manual one or an automatic one? Is one better than the other?

I see alot of people are going with the APE Manual CCT rather than the OEM Automatic CCT... Just wanted to see what you guys thought was better or what you would replace yours with.. Thanks for the inputs!!

 

Well I have been searching around and I am probably going with the APE Manual but I can't seem to find one for the F3 anywhere? I can find it for any other model.. I'm a little confused on this? lol... can anyone lead me to one!? I looked on ebay and googled it but neither have gave me anything...

 

These guys are good!

Sorry i kinda stole you're glory by me posting your link Spicy

 

if you ever ride really hard, get the manual. it wont fail... because its so simple, the only downside is, that you have to adjust it every now and then. the hydraulic one can fail (sometimes) if you ride really hard. the upside, is you shouldn't ever have to mess with it again.

id get the manual one if it were me .02

 

haven't had to adjust mine so far

 

psssh no worries!
