Which to me is a very clever swap, as I never understood Omniums choice of 451.
With 406 you get bigger selection of tires and space for bigger tires which handles better in turns and ads a bit of front suspension.
Just like there are surprisingly few who adopted a 650b rear, for same reasons as above.
