MadsP Posted May 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Looks a bit to thinYeah, thats because its steel, not alu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Geary Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Yeah, thats because its steel, not alu.Yeah i know it's made of steel, you said. But it's a bit to thin for liking, say you land on that hard, it's going to bend really bad.But meh .... just try not to land on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Yeah i know it's made of steel, you said. But it's a bit to thin for liking, say you land on that hard, it's going to bend really bad.But meh .... just try not to land on it but because its steel you bend it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 but because its steel you bend it back bend it back wrong and it won't work properly though.. still - if it works it works - probably weighs less than an ally one . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 must say its one of the best looking boosters I have seen!! soooo sleak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat hudson Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 but to be honest a bit pricey for what they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Looks nice but does it work well? Seen as it looks about the same thickness as a standard magura steel booster which doesnt do much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 A Coust frame with a V-brake on it wouldn't really be the best way of finding out either, I suppose, seeing as those frames are pretty stiff anyway?EDIT: £35's a fairly hefty price as well for a flat plate of steel as a booster?

IOLO Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Looks nice but does it work well? Seen as it looks about the same thickness as a standard magura steel booster which doesnt do much.in my past experience the steel magura boosters on 4 bolt work VERY well.

that NBR dude Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 £35 does seem quite steep to me, especially as Heatsink manages to do one for £28, which is completely machined. He also researched where there the different forces went through, so where you need strength and where you dont. Theres doesnt seem anything revolutionary about that, its just a thin steel booster..?

IOLO Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 (edited) thanks for good feedback people..it really nice seeing that people are positive towards all this stuff,the price may change in the future, but for now, i have frames to be working on and its purly high so its worth it on my part.also remeber, its made to your measurments, can be made to your design,it HAS been thought about and shaped accordingly,and its still light enoughand its not covered in thin paint that will be nocked off by your legs, its powdercoatedand NOPE it is nothing completly new or revolutionary..or a CNC lumpbut i still like it,,thanks againiolo.

dave85 Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Look at it this way, Iolo exists to give you a unique solution to your problems, rather than a mass produced semi-answer. Thats worth paying more for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
