The lift cables ONLY are used to lower the rollers for striping the lawn, now to adjust the cut height or improve the way the deck adjusts for the contour of the lawn.

I agree, but they also stop the deck from dropping down in extreme circumstances, as shown.

I mow the outside edges of the yard last to dress it up.

Great idea. I bet that frames the stripes nicely. Thanks for sharing.

I have the opposite issue on mine where I come out of my ditch and level out and the front can scalp the grass until the back of the unit catches up and lifts the front back up.

Yes, the severe break over angle is difficult for lawn tractors to manage. Have you ever used a conventional lawn tractor on your lawn? The Simplicity isn't perfect in that scenario but much better than others, from what I've experienced. Have you tried mowing the ditch at a slight angle?

@@TheLawnEngineer been a while since i used the old one, but I do not recall it being as bad. I also used to have trees and junipers in the area I since removed. If I go the opposite direction, it is not as bad, but then making the stripes does not happen and I blow the grass into the driveway. That said, the cut everywhere is is fantastic. My reagent is also over 10 years old.

What if you mow the other direction coming at the sidewalk? Same result?

Good point, I didn't think of that at the time. I believe it would make a difference, maybe not a huge difference but it definitely changes the geometry.

There are still drawbacks to the full roller but it helps follow my undulating terrain better than any other mower I’ve had.

This is the unfortunate limitation of the Regent vs the Broadmoor and why the internet community seems to strongly suggest the Broadmoor. It's a better tractor with fully superior deck design. The regent is a heavily compromised design meant to compete with substandard big box riders.

What are the specific advantages of the Broadmoor? There is one deck articulation difference I'm aware of. The Broadmoor deck pivots left and right with the front axle in addition to the back going up and down as with the Regent. I don't believe there is any difference on the degrees of up/down articulation.
