You really don't, we experimented with chromoly decks for both regular and dirt scooters, they are a bad material for decks.

I really don't care if I end up with a 14lb complete, I want something I really ride hard and never worry about grinding through. Other than weight, what makes them so bad?

it would bend i think, also try out a vertx i beam, not one broken and i dont think you will grind through that

It wouldn't bend if you designed it right. And at least it would bend. Steel bends, aluminum snaps.
Dude, you have no idea what you are talking about.
It's less efficient to make a steel deck, which is why it isn't going to happen.
Why would you use steel when you can use aluminum?


I dont think they will ever be released. Its just not worth it for proto

They are coming out.

because steel or chromoly has better resistance to fatigue than aluminium so it would last a lot longer, even if it's designed to be the same strength.
