PROTO Orion combo

[cralle]

Is there any way at all to mount a REAL brake, not a stupid strip of metal?? I can't stand flex fenders, but .. kinda considering the deck.

UBS? that bracket supports all kinds of brakes.

 

[Steezeman]

That's what I like to hear Tyler! Rob, there will be a bracket for using a normal brake and spring that will make installing those components much more simple.

 

[Rob.]

Wonderful. I've only seen the orion with the proto fender on it.

 

[Steezeman]

The brake bracket is not in production yet, but some have been made. That is what Andrew was riding on the original SR decks.

 

[Devin Parker]

can i see a pic of it on someones scooter?

 

[R-Dubya]

Rob, couldn't you take your MGP ninja brake and mount it on the Proto deck just using the UBS holes that are drilled on the Orion? I'm sure one of the six holes will work.

 

[Can]

or you could drill one?? unless you dont like drilling holes in a $250 deck that is?

 

[Connzi machell]

They either come with six holes or 3 holes. you cant just choose

 

[Dom Marconi]

I might consider investing in one if I ever get to try one out, seeing as I don't expect a $250 deck to break, at least I hope not...

 

[tylerbillman]

These things are tanks, at least they look like it, I doubt anybody will break one, unless they land on the back wheel hard as fuck down a twenty-stair probably twenty times in a row.

 

[KieranPeterson]

you my dear sir are in fact trippin'. us big feeted people like me need that extra few inches

Word. When can I get one from FD? My TSI is cracking at the welds and I need a new deck ASAP.

Need answers GET IN HERE STEADMAN!

When are the integrated headtubes coming out?

 

[yaaaaaaabuddy]

2 weeks

 

[Stackies]

Where'd you hear that from?

 

[Connzi machell]

YOU'VE GOTTA FUCKING BE KIDDING ME! D:
AAAAAAH! I bought a phoenix integrated a few days ago because i thought the integrateds were gonna be months away D:

 

[Steezeman]

2 weeks

This is not true at all. I don't know when integrated headtubes are coming out, but it won't be soon.

For those saying a $250 deck shouldn't break, you have a good point. But in the rare case that it does break, know that the headtube has a lifetime warranty against breaking.

 

[yaaaaaaabuddy]

hahahhahaah i was just kidding hahahahahhahaha

 

[Dom Marconi]

I'm really not that worried about the headtube, it looks pretty beefy. I thought I heard you say replacement deck extrusions would be around 80?

 

[koring]

yea mine broke a day after i bought it because i was using it to transport bricks from california to ontario... DOES THE WARRANTY COVER THIS?

 

[SammyT]

the deck may be 21 inches long but the headtube takes up like 1/3 of the deck
