As my tagline reads, I'm building a Bearhawk. FINALLY, my QB Fuse kit will be arriving in a few weeks (my delay, not AviPro's. ). Anyway, curious if anyone cares to share an opinion about Grove versus Cleveland brakes/wheels. My first task is to put the fuse up on the gear, and already I'm at an impasse. I did see an earlier Hangar post about Brakes, but only a coupla people chimed in. I'm surprised there isn't much discourse on this.
I don't have an opinion as I'm just using what came with the finish kit...Cleveland...but I just had to say CONGRATS on getting you QB on the way!! That's awesome! I can't wait to see the pics!
We haven't heard from PK for a while either...you out there buddy???
I say Cleveland. I have to say though I have NO first hand experience with Grove, but A LOT with many Cleveland Products. Easy to maintain and easy to find parts/support, and work great.
Jeff, keep us informed on the Bearhawk. It looks like a great airplane. Like Chad I am using the Clevelands as that is what Van's ships us. I figure it is one less thing for me to have to decide. I have heard good things about the Grove stuff though.
There, that was helpful wasn't it.

I have no experience with Cleveland, but I have a lot of Grove stuff in my 8 and the quality is excellent. Also, I have spent a lot of time talking to Robbie Grove and I think he knows his stuff and it is great to talk directly to the guy who runs the place.
