Worth the premium for bling? I doubt it.

 

[superjet0587]

definately not worth it but i just saw it and thought it was cool lookin, i would never buy one

 

[rkymtnrider]

what if you were to have the inside of the pipe ceramic coated?would that solve the heating issue?

 

[meatball]

its not an issue of heat. Its that the pipe shape and sizes and lengths were designed for metal, not carbon, the same shape in a different material doesnt yield the same results. The properties are way too different.

and its so rare and valuable this guy is selling it? so valuable infact that he paid over 500 out of the 1200 it cost new?:haha:

From what I've heard and seen, it appears that the *Dry Carbon* chambers that the Japaneese use for competition are working pretty well for about 10min. until the carbon heats up and the sonic wave starts to get lost, at that point HP starts to decrease, it seems from pics I've seen that the Japanees use standard aluminum chambers in their practice skis when ride time lasts longer than a 2min routine.

I forgot who made the chamber on here. I think it was over on pwctoday. he also laid some gold kevlar in his ski. he is a composites master.
