If You Could

[Synergy]

what would you call them and what would you specify in.

i think i would like to make frames and rims but no ide aon a name probably something like acrox

just thought would be a fun name to see if people had thought of it and what you would call it.

[poopipe]

I'd call it 'girl bikes' and I'd specialise in frames that didnt have threaded BB shells and threadless BBs

and make them pink

[Joe Papasnap Maher]

Carbonique - id make carbon boosters, top caps, frameguards

Oh shit

No thats already been done :$

[Ash-Kennard]

bouncy bikes, wheel stuff and fancy extra such as steel mech hangers

[rocks370]

I would call it "oh thats tight!" - "O.T.T" for short

Specify in Steel chain tensioners, left handed drive hubs and cranks.

[Simon]

I'd call it _____-______ and it'd be an online trials magazine.

If only.

[nafan]

Sponge bikes no doubt. I made up loads of stuff for an as-if in ICT when I finished my work, and today downloaded some editing software and made a logo ect.

[PaRtZ]

Trials PaRtZ

or Gev bike co.

Obvious reason I would specialise in those little oddment parts like nuts, bolts, spacers, washers etc. Maybe even take custom orders for special parts?

Don't have a name yet, but I'm actually planing on doing some part, I'm actualy planing on trying out a backyard mini forge. Basicly do innovative designs... most are on paper and kinda hard to explain, but for a example, 3-piece cranks, but with one crank incorporated in the axle, so you could put it on your chocolate foot's side and not worry about stripping the crank interface But in the lesser fantastic, I was thinking of a steel crank with an aluminum core, steel ensures a durable crank interface and pedal threads + steel is harder than aluminum so it would get less damage from being hit everywhere, the aluminum core would give some stiffness and lower the overall weight.

Dont know any name, but I would have made 24" specific products

[omgnoseat]

my own trialscompany would be great, just making a living out of trials would be awesome

seems a bit unreal though

but i'm not really interested in having my own company, i would rather be a rider for a company and travel to comps over the world

sorry im getting carried away here

A bit like those from DMR and a few others now then

I'd love to be able to build frames and stuff, but to be honest I'd be happy playing with milling machines and lathes to play with bits and bobs really

Maybe make a few nice axles or something, I don't know!

Frames would be cool though

Probably call it something along the lines of "Monkey's Bikes" or similar

Carlsberg dont do trials parts but if they did.....

[ollie2000]

oli's cycles

specifys in custom frames, id make some frames with fixed geo for a cheaper price, boosters, forks, bbs, maggie levers, cranks, rims and freewheels

[Janson]

wide rims in mavic's maxtal aluminium would be good?

i'd make parts that actually worked. function over form in trials, every time.

[yoyoyo]

I'm doing this as my business coursework. A homemade trials frame manufacturer.

Struggling on a decent name though to be honest.

*Awaits a name to pilfer*

[Greetings]

Dengomatic? 100% anodized-free components.

Edit: nah seriously, no idea what it'd be called, but I'd make small stuff that makes a difference. Like CNC backings, Magura replacements (pistons, TPA's etc) brake clamps that would be easier to set up, tensioners etc. Freewheels is another thing but then that's way too complicated to make. If I had the possibility, I'd try and make a freewheel with a Chris King engagement system just for private use, seeing as it's patented. I'd love to have a proper lathe and CNC machine, it's my biggest dream. Pity I'd have to sell everything I've got to get just a good lathe... Working on metal is just the best thing on earth.

[Mr_Pitbull]

1st id call my company, "the company" then id produce nothing and go in debt! then kill myself.

[Joe_Elding]

Swift cycles. probably make rims.

[joewhite]

Helicoils 'R' us

the easy way of buying helicoils and all those bits and bobs that bugger up on a bike

[Onza Kieron]

Contra Cycles and basically do the same job as Fresh Products/Heatsink and all the other smaller rider owned companys.

Doubt it will happen but we all have dreams.

[downhill_rob2@hotmail.com]

X-Otrillion.

Just cause it sounds good (first word [word?] that came to my head...)

Id specialize in, brake pads, grips, tyres, innertube (100% puncture resistant) and a whole lot more things!

Does that meen it would be possible to make your own hub shell only with a lathe ? It could be really worth it, you could build a hub to work with eno freewheel and not have to buy their'e hub shell 175 $ CAN. Now let's see if I can bodge myself a decent lathe...

A hub shell yes, the only problem you'd have is drilling the spoke holes and getting the proper materials to make the shell from. Other than that, why not?
