martenistic stainless cage?

What is the sound of one hand typing?

ok, so while i'm rolling, i'll stop and look for signs of wear and tear before i finish rolling

you cannot always see carbon fiber damage, if the layers start to delaminate after an impact, you will likely not notice unless you go around tapping your entire cage listening for a difference in the sound. and that's when they fail catastrophicaly, when the damage goes unseen and the tube loses it's structural integrity. then POP!

if something is gonna fails, its gonna fail. how many people routinely check the condition of their cage or unibody? through and through, up and down?

im just saying this stuff is meant to absorb impact, often deflect or direct impact, and then return to its original shape. CNT is used to scafold entire buildings. but i doubt itd be a cost effective alternative for a cage. might want to talk to the engineers of some super cars... some sport entire carbon fiber chassis... and an impact at 200mph is going to see a hell of a lot more damage than a simple roll over.

if you want something that you know will work, use DOM. you want to use something different... try it. either youll end up on the cover of 4wheeler, or with a darwin award.

there's a HUGE difference between carbon tubing and a carbon monocoque chassis.

He tred to buy aluminum tubes.
Do you know what the F you can do with an aluminum tube?

what are you going to do about it, shoo me out of your summer home with a broom again?

I was wondering what all that noise was from over that side of the camp, he was playing hide the broom with you.

Oh no ...son...he be building cages out of aluminum tubes while eating yellow cake ...He's a terrorist ?

who said somethin about oil? bitch you cooking?

 

[Vanimal]

i completely forgot i have access to all sorts of testing equipment, i can see how this stuff holds up compared to DOM pretty easily.
