Adrian Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 carbon was too flexy so i made it from fibre glass, its a weird colour because i marked the fibre glass out with a red pen and a black pen, once again this was only to see how strong the material would be and to make sure the size etc is right[attachmentid=7889][attachmentid=7890][attachmentid=7891] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walleee Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 thats not s prototype its just a copy of a fresh, fair play for making it and all, I was going to say it's not a proto unless there are plans to actually produce it, but yeh same point!And is there any need for two topics? or just following the trend set by mr carbon fibre booster maker?

Adrian Posted November 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 actualy it started as a square bit of material with the bar sticking out to one side, but then i just cut off as much material as i could without making it realy weak, and thats the shape that i ended up with, i swear i did not mean to copy the fresh product ones, and when i say its a proto i mean it was only to see how strong the material is and to make sure all the bolkts fit correctly and it lines up with my chain, the next one is gonna be made so it has grooves for my fibre glass mech hanger to slot into so that it doesnt come loose..

future orange 660 Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 fairly daft i think seeing as materials like this and carbon fibre have the impact strength of a paper bag. just make a ti hanger and buy a decent cnc tensioner.
