Gmade R1 to a Enroute Berg?

[bikerzee24]

Well as much videos I have been watching over the last few days, the enroute berg has cought my eye yet again. When I first wanted to get into crawling I didn't want a MOA crawler and after all the research I ended up building the R1 I have now. Well now time has gone by and I am contemplating on selling my axles on my gmade and going with the new enroute berg v3 axles. My main goal to getting into crawling was to have a crawler that could dominate a rock stack, i never intended to do any comps and I'm really not into the scale rigs. The r1 does well at crawling, but from what I can see the MOA's dominate for sure.
So I am thinking I can use the stealth chassis i have for my R1 now as my chassis with the berg axles, but I will need to narrow down the width quite a bit which shouldn't be much of an issue really. Other than having to buy an additional motor and new speed controller with frotn and rear did I think it would be a pretty cool change.
I am certainly doubting myself here since I put so much work in the r1 and I don't really want to make way with it. Cost wise it would be a smart move if I can sell the gmade axles for the price I think they are worth. If not then I will probably just be building the berg from scratch which is no big deal, I just don't like the idea of having two comp crawlers on my shelf.

What are your opinions on this change? Should I just make it a year long project and build a berg from scratch or convert the r1?

So after talking this over with my wife and brother in law, I have decided to keep my gmade. I would never get the amount of money for it after putting so much work in the mods and money into the mods it well over the amount that someone would actually pay for. So it will be passed down to my wife since should has confirmed that she would love to drive it. Even though I think it will crawl just as well as the berg or bully that I will soon be building. Right now I am having a hard time deciding on if I should go with the RC4WD Bully axles or the Berg Axles, they are considerablly differently on cost and the bully's may be the way to go. It's going to be an expensive build for sure, and I am having a difficult time trying to find a good looking chassis to use with this set up, hopefully I can find something worth while.

That's not a bad looking rig, except that I can build a new one for the amount he is selling it for.
