Glanza_cl Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 you not worried about excess weight from the cage? i know its lightweight material but surely its going to weigh a bit when completely fabricated together? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 <br />you not worried about excess weight from the cage? i know its lightweight material but surely its going to weigh a bit when completely fabricated together?<br />Yea it will add abit of weight..but we're also gaining alot in structural rigidity.. At the end of the day we could make it silly light, but it wouldnt be safe or stable so it wouldn't be worth it..We've got a few ideas up our sleeves so keep checking back Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Si@Fiske Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 Haha love how rob just replies for me, thanks bro lol!But yeh exactly what he said safety and structural rigidity is more important, itl be light enough and can male up for that with more power!
