Next generation stunt part research - ~03~raven - 09-20-2012
Ok so I got a good, close friend of mine who's been starting up a company. The company will do much more than just stunt parts however he's always been a street rider and wants to try and do some innovative things with the stunt world since he's always been a guy true to his roots and can't live without rocking it on one.
Anyways. He's about to start building some half frames and such and we've tossed around some ideas going on his metal working knowledge and what I've caught on here. So what I am doing to help him is get more info from you the riders. The guys who use and abuse this stuff daily, from all different skill levels. Now he realizes most stunters don't have deep pockets. But he through his metal working experience, he knows there are better options for some parts other than steel.
Right now he's about to build a half frame out of chromoly. He wants to get feedback on chromoly and Al parts. He's wanting to start building instead of steel parts, lighter parts that have the same integrity. Like, what parts would you like to see with similar strength, that are lighter, for comparable costs(I know RSC has the Al subframes now, but what else?). Because of supply and demand and his current position he's saying those materials he can get for the same or less than what it would cost for steel.
If you want to see examples of his beads I can get some pics. If you have any wants, or desires for stunt parts just post up that way he can look and see what's possible.
Or if you got an idea you want to come to life and want to talk to him directly about it, hit him up here. http://www.facebook.com/ShiftyWorks
