exactly.

i ride tank also, and imo thats just not a great design. a giant hunk of metal as a foldy is gonna be a bit too heavy and expensive for the amount of strength it would provide.

maybe if you machined out the inside, put brackets on the outside and bolted/welded it to the deck with along with a forward reinforcement (like on a pro) it would be good. but still, to much money. and if your going to design and make a new neck thing like that (which you should), design one that doesn't fold. nice work anyway tho

At least Pete's scooter isn't made out of full blocks, he used reasonable amount of tubes.
And remarkably, he defenetaly spent more time figuring out and designing his parts how NOT to make it unnecessarely heavy unlike Garrad's foldy-piece.

you don't want to make it so light and weak that it breaks. however pete does believe in shifting unnesecery exess wieght.

that one is better because it has less material, so less weight and looks better

Peru-guy, that's exactly what i mean. Now that's a lot reasonable already, but still it can be made better.
