So, here goes MrSceptical again...
What's the point? I come to think of the moped extra kits, sold in glossy magazines from the 70-80s. "Shorter throttle action gives You better acceleration"? In my book it gives You less feel, much more important than winning that extra 1/1000s of a second (and especially with flatslides). But I might have missed something, the links say it's essential for racing, so, please enlighten me (I am MrSceptical, but I try to be open-minded...)

My wrist has always been bad (i can perhaps fold them 25%) and now i´m getting something like carpal tunnel pains when twisting so i want the least amount of movement in the wrist...
SO....nothing to do with acceleration here!

OK, that makes sense
But there's got to be more to it, as I assume others that buy these kits don't have the same problem?
