Another thing is the load on the clutch mechanism. Since you cannot put the gearbox in neutral, this mechism must contain a decent bearing.All the time for a stop the clutch needs to be used.
This is true. Although I would already the lever in place if I were to go with a hydraulic clutch, merely combine the 3 braking systems into the right lever and use the left for the clutch.

I needs to get me a big giant socket to get that clutch loose.
