  1. Another One For The Weight Weenies...

    However, their frames are pure shit, catalogue bollocks. Their "Revolution" frame cracked for all their team riders repeatedly, so they just added more weld and hoped for the best. They might've got it down to 2.7lbs, but if their 3.5lb ones crack, then what's the point? They're such a f**king useless company... It just annoys me that there are 'core' BMX companies who are rider-owned who are doing it for the right reasons that are going out of business, then you get shit companies like UKBikeCo who are of no benefit to anyone, who are just seeking to ream the fashion-conscious, weight-weenie kids. Grr.

    Judging from my past experiences with Ison, they wouldn't have a clue whether it was production or prototype, or even if it was a real product. You could probably make up a totally random part and say KHE would make it, and they'd still say "Yeah, should be in the country in about 2 weeks or so. Call back then."

    Im sorry mark, the first one, its bull shit.

    i know they have had problems but every company does.

    Team rides are payed to break the bikes, its the only way to evolve.

    We have sold a Good number of the frames and at the minute, it may be a fahsion accessorie, the ones we sold to good riders have had no problems at all.

    Dibs who runs UK has put all his engineering career and the last 2 years of his life into the company and its products.

    Its been developed from the ground up and is a good example of a rider run/owned company.

    After speaking with him for just a short period of time, you realise he has a passion for it.

    Their 2.7 isnt into production, they do a 3.4 and a 3.7.

    second one, Amen

    love as always

  24. A Fact About Energy

    in Chit Chat

    Posted

    I Just watched a bit of 'By Any Means' with charley Booreman, he sayed (as he was about to get into a solar powered car) that Australia produces on its hottest day of the year enough solar energy IN A DAY to power the world for a year!!!

    Now, thats unrealistic to capture it all but it gives you an idea just how powerfull the sun is.

    Giving that Australia is 7,741,220 Km², the Average temp is around 19C and the hottest around 36C (year on year, without freak heat) we can assume the Hottest is around double the average thus giving us the principal that through the year we would need 2 days of sunlight to generate the energy for the world.

    Considering this, if we said we could have a solar panel of a certain size permanently fixed, the size must be the area of Australia/time required.

    Either - All of australia for just 2 days a year,

    All of the year with the Size of austalia/ 183 (year in half)

    We there for need a solar panel 42301.7km² running all year round at the average temp of 19C to generate enough energy for the world.

    I found Solar Panels at £1833/ Square meter (bloody ell)

    we only need to spend £77,539,016,100 as a one of cost (plus maintainence) to put the solar panel's in, a worthy investment im sure you will agree.

    To put it in prespective, the government just shelled out 55,000,000,000 to bail out banks in the UK

    the money is out there.

    to be honest, its just me being inqusative (sp?) and its very very late, just a thought of mine for the last 5 mins

    Oh, i really do always think this way in real life.

    bed time
