What is the strength of the new district? How long will i last?

The strength is exactly 314SS, which stands for Scooter Strength units. Every district is manufactured within a .0068 SS tolerance, so you can be assured that the strength of a District DK-2 is precisely 314SS. No more, no less.

As for how long it will last, it is quite a complicated formula. You need to take into account the quadratic formula, which is:

x= (-b+/- sq. root b^2 - 4ac)/2a

Where A is your weight, B is how high you can air out of an average quarter, in inches, and C is the average number of hours you ride per day. You might want to start a graph, and record your ride time each day for a month, then add all of them up at the end and divide by 30, which will give you average hours per day. Only in a month with 30 days though, any conflicting data will put your results off by as much as 3 years. Using this formula, you can find out X, which is the amount of days the DK-2 will last you.

This is scooter science, and is very precise and serious work. I hope it helps.

Indeed, serious work this is R-Dubya. This is the most epic post on here by far and now that that has been said I present R-Dubya with the Epic Scooter Science Post of the Year Award. Cherish it.

there really good i have the new integrated deck and man its heaps stronger. it will last longer because the deck is longer witch helps out with distributing the impact and the HT gussets r pretty beefy as well... although it looks like it will snap in the same places as all the V2 decks did once it gets to the breaking point

From what I've heard they only tac welded some of the headtube reinforcements and even took a reinforcement out.

It's the morning so I'm not actually going to think about this but after 2 years of algebra and one of geometry this sounds like a buncha made up crap.
