    make everything look so easy...so much power! that drop looked painful...feet don't bend that way adam
  17. finally found some info on magnalium (trade name)... the magnesium content can vary from 5-50%, so it's alot lighter than say 6000 or 7000 series alloys.. it has very good fatigue properties, which is very important with the cyclic/hopping loads in trials... just because the frames are fairly cheap doesn't mean they are of poor quality- did you know that a Zhi frame costs the equivalent of £50 in china? and that's including profit.... people who think that magnesium just burns people if they look at it wrongly...aluminium reacts in a very similar way! give it a chance people! like others have said, unlike commercial alloys and steels, there hasn't been big investment in these materials and r&d is still very much in progress...no doubt this stuff will replace traditional alloys in the near future (in low weight situations...) adam
