[CristobalMacias]

yeah he said mid-march when i was talking to him at sd4

hopefully they are out around mid-march, my birthday is in that month so i would for sure get one.

 

[tylerbillman]

Funniest conversation in those last couple of posts. ^^^

I like the look of it alot! Congrats dude!

 

[Michael Rankin]

yeah i love the look of it too

 

[dylancrower]

i got the old version mike text me your address so i can ship you the bars when i get them.

 

[haydenscoots1151]

can you take a pic of the headtube how its 1 piece please.
thanks

 

[Lochlan]

They are ugly, and break to easy, the only good thing about them is their easy to hang five on

 

[saltwater]

Thats a good win!
Also change ur sig from "thank you MPG" to "Thank you Madd Gear" it would make more sence
I'm pretty sure you will enjoy it, the H/T angle is only slighty more forward that on a pro.
And they have a good weight. imo
Take a pic when its set up!

PLEASE take the wieght w/o bearing cups or wheels or brake or anything. that would be awesome for the super-thread. also, the ht angle would be great

Ask madd gear?

 

[KieranPeterson]

Idk. The whole arc look that connects the deck to the headtube just looks easy to break to me. I know its not, and its solidly welded and ----- it just looks funny. The dropouts look so sweet tho. Could be one of the better one pieces.

 

[Josh Young]

i hate the look of this deck. but idk the dropouts do look legitttttt

 

[T-Sell32]

Is it just me or does that look bent?

 

[Michael Rankin]

the dropouts are bent, but that is the desgin of the deck. kind of like on an old a model

thanks

the only welds on the headtube is where the neckpiece meets the deck. the headtube and neckpiece are forged out of one solid piece of aluminum.

 

[bhill3396]

is it just me or are the back drop outs bent up?

i dont know i might be crazy

 

[Michael Rankin]

^ if you looked at the post 2 posts up from yours you would have seen the post explaining the bend

 

[michael pytel]

try and see if you can use threadless forks on it, since the head tube is all small and stuff.

 

[CristobalMacias]

how heavy is it?

 

[Billie Rainbow]

deck weighs 1475 grams w/o any other parts on it
and the bend in the back is for two reasons, one when the are making the deck its easier for the machines they use, and two is it gives it a slightly better ride.

 

[Billie Rainbow]

and i run threadless forks on it with hic, all i had to do was make a bigger shim and therefore made the bars stronger at the same time

yeah i was thinkign id just have to cut down some old i pieces down to work and get a longer bolt for the starnut, if i get a mgp deck , is that what you did?
