titanium bars?

[jcas367]

i was just thinking why hasnt anyone made titanium scooter bars, i mean they make ti bike bars and even frames?

 

[natethegreat]

i havent made them but my friend and i make bars in steel aluminum and chromoly we were thinking about it. it would be expensice but pretty sick prolly

 

[Rob.]

they're strong for their weight. Not stronger than chromo though.

chromoly is stronger and costs less.

 

[jcas367]

yeah but titanium is a lot lighter

 

[mat]

welding/maching ti is a bitch
its extremely expensive
its not that amazingly strong

 

[Hep Greg]

Titanium is not worth the time/money. dont bother.

 

[Andy Rhode]

hey guys! why dont we make titanium bars/decks and reinforce it with concrete?

 

[Hep Greg]

HAHAHA I REMEMBER THAT.

 

[idk47]

[Tylerr.]

[Spicy McHaggis]

titanium is strong but bends easily but wont break

 

[kolbycrouch]

titanium is heavier then aluminium, and if your gonna weld it youll prolly have to buy grade 2 which isnt any stronger than aluminium 6061-T6, and its really expensive and a bitch to weld. totally not worth it

My friend's grandma was amazed at how light his bike was and said it must be made of tungsten. So who's gonna make tungsten bars first?

 

[Hep Greg]

lol the scribe that i use to scratch tags into windows is made of tungsen steel.

also, i dont think Steven T would appreciate being made into bars. {-)

 

[c4scooters]

Haha.

Tungsten is crazy heavy.

i was just thinking why hasnt anyone made titanium scooter bars, i mean they make ti bike bars and even frames?

because it is to much money and the ti bmx bars they bent easly

 

[Humma]

Not worth it, bend easy, cost a lot, pain in the ass.

 

[konowaluk]

i thought ti was as strong as steel tho
