yea but how many people buy that, compared to how many people buy tsi, lucky evo, ambush or pheonix decks.

if thats your arguement, it makes no sense whatsoever. You said not that many people buy the ZG scoot, so why would the price be lower? If the demand isnt as high they have to charge more to be able to continue being a company. If they lowered the price by, say, 50 bucks, lots of people would probably want it. Then when more people start buying ZG parts, they can lower the price a bit more.

you shouldnt be throwing that word around just based on where the metal is from. its still really damn expensive. i spent like 500 on my scooter and made it exactly how i wanted it. most a complete should be is like 400 imo.

he didnt argue that about why it is so expensive. He simply stated that no one is going to pay 600 dollars for that! he is 100 percent correct. these guys are out of there minds

your still obviously not adding up all the parts.
ok chandler mccocksucker
everything breaks. i don't give a shit if its from "THE USA!!! OMG". all metals on the face of the planet break under natural conditions.
to sum it up. This deck may be worth the 250 dollars. BUT NOBODY WANTS TO SPEND 250 ON A SCOOTER DECK. idc if its imbued with the power of jesus or w/e. its a scooter. holy tits, this sport isin't about making indestructible shit. TSI, lucky, phoenix and ambush are successful because they make AFFORDABLE PARTS.

^^ he knows whats up.
frame around 300
back rim complete around 60
thats already 420 (lol) bucks
without any other parts.
and yet most complete bikes cost around that price. you know why? because no one is going to buy a 1500 dollar complete bike when they can make one exactly the way they want it for the same price. think about it. you can make a complete scooter however you want it to be, for less than this zg complete. if you are making a complete scooter the price really cant be above.. id say 350, or no one would buy it.
bike bars are around 60 bucks

We will now be offering decks without the spider logo on the deck plate. This will help bring the price down a bit. They will be available on our site next week.
i think if ur gonna go cnc, youre going to have to figre out an efficient way to make the decks strong but not too intricate or fancy (like lucky)
cause lucky decks are known to be great for 105 bucks
introducing a new cnc deck for more than that wont appeal to consumers
yea i agree with jacek, these decks might b amazing but at 250 id never consider it cause like jacek said a lucky pro deck is 105 or so and the evo with the evo ht is under 160, and btw the evo ht is all one piece unlike the zg ht which is welded, and idk about anyone else but id want a cnc'd ht if i had a cnc deck cause the ht is generally the weakest point or most stressed, and most decks arnt cnc so it just makes this ht design even weaker expecially with how solid the deck looks since its cncd.
I don't care if the metal is from hell its self, everything breaks. It might last forever, it might last a week, we might never know because not many people would buy a 250$ deck, when there's cheaper (proven/reviewed) alternatives out there.
You know why we use 8mm axles for our scooters? Because bearings fit best with 8mm axles. OMG. This whole "compatibility" thing is pretty cool isn't it?
Oh by the way:
(Phoenix integrated) For Use with Integrated 45/45 headsets. MSRP $229.95 (includes FSA Orbitz Integrated Headset and Phoenix Switchblade Brake) So it's $230 for complete deck. Not 240/250.
