E-Ride Chromoly Hardware | Why We Didn't Go With Titanium

[@realkidcarter]

Hi, what about pricklys talaria axle, "Made with 4140 steel and heat-treated for increased strength, it won't bend, break, or snap - even under extreme conditions. With a black zinc coating, it also offers superior corrosion resistance. Backed by a lifetime warranty, this bolt is designed to offer maximum performance and durability every time." Im pretty confident in it

[@gritshift]

Sounds like a great product! We have never used the Prickly axle so not sure of everything that you mentioned. 4140 Steel is Chromoly btw. Also as mentioned in the description we decided to go with 4340 Chromoly instead of the tested 4140 for reasons listed. All in all, im sure the Prickly product you are mentioning is awesome! We built these HH axles for us, which extends out to the guys that also want them as well.

@@gritshift awesome take thank you its been amazing for me. the stock one bent on me so thats what i bought

[@gritshift]

@@realkidcarter yup the stock ones bend pretty easily. And once they do they are usually a PITA to get in and out and throws everything out of wack.

If you're bending stuff within 100 miles, you need to learn to ride better.

[@spacefish92]

You don't break anything when you are testing products to sell to the masses?

[@OregonCrow]

@@spacefish92 wut

[@gritshift]

I agree, I think I could ride better, faster, and longer. It's all in the seat time! If you are a pro level rider id love to learn from you if you wanted to ride together one day. Also something to take note on. We got these E Ride's and intentionally cased jumps, and wrecked on hill climbs etc to understand the common fail points on the chassis, so we could advance the product by helping with feedback directly to the bike manufacturer, and also to create aftermarket support for parts. We don't focus on making parts that are not really needed just to add bling to the bikes, we make products that we find as weak points so we don't have failures during race events or just mistakes we make while we are riding.
