[teddyscoots]

copper probably bends but its uber light and it will work if its thick enough

 

[Matt]

totally disaggreee with it being weak copper conduit works great for a cross bar and at lowes its 8 bucks for a 24 in peice so 18 in bars and a good extra peice for reinforcien a fork

ive got coppper bars on mine bolted through the stock t-tube and painted them black...they look nice,are wider and feel so much more sturdy than the regular clip on bars

i did a 6 and didnt break my copper 20 inch crossbar or bend it

copper is the worst metal to use on a scooter.

Gold would be worse. I'm pretty sure there are plenty other metals that would be worse, also, but copper is pretty bad.

+ coppers getting expensive

 

[c4scooters]

yes

or you could just save up like 100000 pennies and buy a blowtorch and melt em down into some tubing and ya know make some good 1 peices


+ u need hella old pennis tho

im pretty sure i payed like $2.70 or so per ft and i bought 3 feet so i could make 2 bars if you call that expensive...?

that was hillarious.

yeah I bought a copper cross bar but ended up returning it for black steel. Its from one extreme to the other at lowes. I dont trust copper
