deck looks mint but yeh do it i two different angles like 79 for people who like razorpro angle and 82.5 for others. Can't wait to see the finished product
Hi thanks for all your comments, there will be welding under the headtube so dont worry about that, we just weighed the deck and comes out at 1.6kg with a brake, pheonix is 1.58kg without the brake so very close. Another good part today is that the forks and being worked on and the clamps for the bars also being made so within next week or so hope to have a pretty much finished scooter for pictures and then we can get some made for testing if all good. Another bonus is that because we have worked hard to make everything rather than pay loads of people to work on it etc the costs have actually come down so the whole scooter looks sure to come in at under £100 and the deck alone less than £50 so alot less than pheonix, £20 less than district and cheaper than Razor Ultra Pro deck so hopefully we are onto a winner, will work hard to get one finished and start testing. Will get some out to some testers too as discussed, jeremy hope you get your scooter back but either way will try and get one to you asap. Cheers again, Joel.

i would suggest trying to contact eagle sport for wheels since they make some of the best metalcore wheels in the world, and i have heard of them making wheels for other companies in the past. and YAK wheels are very poor quality and break easily (im sure others will agree) and your probably better off not making grips since most people put rubber bmx grips on scooters now, and yak grips arent good either

^^ yes but that wil put the price up by 30 quid minimum, whilst a solid plastic core won't cost even half of that and will last a long time. E.G yak USA or Demon plasic cores. If they do manage to break one then they can go and choose any metal core they want.

They sell bulk i think and im not shore about the demon cores though

So how many ways can an OEM factory make wheels? You would think they would only have one design

lol every one is sayin they would test it out for you, so id probably pay to test it out cause i literally break every thin on bikes and scooters ask jona scoots, so i think id be a good person to test it, if i dont break it in a short amount of time it should last a while for others

hows things going joel??
Hi Jeremy,
Everything is going well thanks, decks looking good and making some more up at the minute for testing probably a couple of weeks to get them done, doing work on forks at the minute and got stickers finished (easier than metal parts so done very quickly!)and boxes are ready to go. All in all everything that we dont need yet is done, lol! Will have some pretty much finished versions ready for photos in next week or so and then can start testing, been getting the ceramic bearings tested too and they are looking really good, not going to start saying they are better than Bones ones but very close and less than half the price so all in all well pleased. As soon as I have some pictures or news on full scoots etc will get the info on here. Sorry been slow this week but loads going on but not much changed if that makes sense.
