bent lonestar

[YFZCHAMP]

both Mike A #5 bent our Lonestar axles the first race we did on them, (the same Race BTW). Lonestar said " people bend and break our axles all the time, we just have better customer service so folks don't mind as much). I bought a Lonestar axecaliber axle to avoid this, I sent my axle back today, mike is waiting for his to come back as well. Moral, no amount of money will ever be enough...

ya,lsr has very good customer service.BUT THE ONLY REASON I BENT MY LSR AXLE WAS BECAUSE I OVERSHOT A HUGE JUMP BY 15 FEET.i have been very pleased with my lsr axle and would recomend it to everyone, i have raced 4 good races on it and not everybody will jump like i do and the axle barely bent,just enough to notice that it was bent.It's not like a g-force that bends on practice jumping a weak 15 ft table and not like a durablue x-33 the top of the line durablue that breaks completly off of the same jump that i bent my g-force on!!!

LSR IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO

i got my axle back only took 7 days to send to lsr,fix it ,then send it back!!

I agree, just pointing out the irony of our luck on the same day, yes LSR is the way to go ALL the way. So did you rebend your LSR axle practicing?

That is pretty damn impressive (the jump) you and Mike A #5 bent your LSR the same way, your picture looks like a photo of him sailing into the valley, Glad you made out okay, seems like you have some really juice for riding.


LSR is the bomb

[Shocka400ex]

I'm no expert but this picture sorta looks like he did a little cut and pasting. Also, your a little nose high buddy ;)

[YFZCHAMP]

Never can tell, Mike, nick and landry and I are launching pretty high, Mike especially, can't say about the above shot, but I have seen mike do it.:cool:

[sampleez]

the quality is crappy cause it's just a frame from this vid. i think you have to have quicktime to see the vid

It's good that LSR keeps their loyal customer happy with a good warranty. Im just curious to know if RPM's warranty/axle is any better.

Nothing I like more then getting the nose up real high, purposely though. While looking up and over the front of the quad. Then bringing the nose back down. Looks awesome in pictures.

[YFZCHAMP]

I think they are close from what I hear to the same.

About the picture above, Who hasn't launched nose up to claer or negotiate steep double landings, it is just part of evening out the course sometimes.

Keep the rubber side down and the thottle pinned.:cool:

[sampleez]

i was just messing around and way overdoing it in that pic. it is an uphill double tho
