PROTO Scooters: TDI & UBS Debut 2010

[727scooterer]

Holy shit. I just realized.. how dialled that brake system is... oh wow.
Dude, is there any possibility at all of a MGP style curved headtube?

edit; person above... dude, would he show a cracked bent deck to PROMOTE his new deck?

to the person who responded to me... dude, everyone knows hes legit obviously and would tell people if his deck broke he wouldnt hide it.. he would just go back to the drawing boards and make it stronger. so i was just wondering damn think

 

[Corey]

WOW
Ingenius.

yep

 

[Erwin]

i think its an amazing idea for strength. andrew also focused on the fact that this idea saves money....so hopefully that means it will be cheaper than other aftermarket decks. it sure doesnt look like it will be cheap, but why else would andrew focus on the fact that the way he makes this deck will not be as expensive. i hate to sound like a weight freak, but all i wanna know is

-weight?
-price?
-headtube angle?
-integraded?
-width?

if andrew manufactures these decks with a reasonable wight and a reasonable price...i think it will be BY FAR the best deck ever.

 

[Riley Hughes]

here's a deck i think we can all actually get our hopes up about! (contrary to district decks)

 

[pearsonpsh]

^ pahahahah

 

[Matt_Porter]

is it a integrated or standard headset eather way i bet it will be hella expensive

If you payed attention you would have heard him say he is trying to make ot cheap to make so ot won't cost as much as other decks

 

[Dusty]

Want it. Best looking deck out. And the technology is amazing, simply.

 

[c.roman]

great ideas. theres room for improvement.

 

[Steezeman]

Since the headtubes are interchangeable there will be different headtube angles available. Most likely the first angles will be 83 and 81.5. The decks will be available in 4, 4.5, and 5", even though the deck in the video is 6" since it was the mega deck. They will also be integrated, not sure if this will be right when they are released or later down the road, but it will happen. That's why the headtube is machined wider, so that when we decide to make them integrated we won't have to complete redesign the headtube.

 

[Mario Rocchio]

Lengths?

 

[parrish]

^^^^
haha 60th reply

 

[Scott Trainer]

wow, Andrew is a smart ass guy! thats so unique and different, but way more practical. he explained it great too.

are there any ideas how much the decks will be?
he said easier to manufacter, so i hope itll be more affordable then the rest

 

[JoshNunez]

It should be more affordable, why would he making a deck that is cheap to make and then sell it to the scooter community hella expensive? Andrew is not like, i hope....

 

[christianewing]

oh my god....i am buying this deck the day it comes out...i dont care what anyone says i want it so bad

 

[Steezeman]

Lengths are probably just going to be 20" at first, but since it will be extruded any length could be had. So longer cruiser/hill bomber/mega scooters could be in the future.

 

[charliemein]

now that is one legit tatoo

 

[tylerbillman]

Ive been wondering what this extrusion word meant. I see now how it's better than CNC. So since it's going to be extruded, I'm assuming the Tunglok will be the length of the deck with the three bolts at the front? I was thinking that would be pretty damn strong.

 

[Mario Rocchio]

Same length as a TSI would be ideal. But, their headtube protrudes farther from the deck itself, so maybe a tad longer.

 

[Steezeman]

We tried to make sure that the length between the headtube and the deck is close to a TSI since they are so good for noseblunts.

 

[Grant Schofield]

whyd he go with an oval shape?
