March 11th, 2009 at 11: 13 pm they should make some kind of compressor hooked to the weels for brakeing. like an A/C compressor off a car that when you step on the brake the electric clutch kicks in slows the car down and helps charge the air tank back up. like on long hills cause you will need that charge to get back up the other side …. what goes down, must come up and also what goes up, must come down … … … .. thanks
