Precise ELA Telescoping Mod by Super-T!

[rojo]

Aw raq. It's called a sense of humor.

And thanks for the passive-aggressive "you must be new here".

You must be new here. You get used to the way raq is after a while.

(Just kidding. I couldn't resist.)

I'm a whack-a-doodle that's for sure!

Track down some of the old skewl Super T'ers and they can add to that fact..



I mean I did sell my T1 and that alone proves my point!

Off I go to peddle for the day.. See you in about 4 hours! Hope that Ti does not get posted while I am peddle powering away..

Guess I am really owt now.. Waiting for the Ti thread to kick up so I can bother everyone in there

I plan on using my Big Dummy to transport my ELA when I go places where I want my ELA but will take my Big Dummy to get there. I could you it to transport about a thousand ELA's. When David comes out with the rba for the ELA, I'll transport that on my Big Dummy. Unless I have to go fast, then I'll transport my ELA on my Cannondale flat bar. And some people think bikes have nothing to do with ELA's. That's just silly.

Just got back from a week's holiday and the ELA arrived today
There is a saying in the UK that you wait ages for a bus and then two turn up. The Simplicity 18500 arrives tomorrow

So far I've just stuck an 18350 battery and a kick in the ELA with a Kayfun Lite on the top and I'm very pleased with it. I've waited a long time to get a Super-T mod and I'm glad I waited for this one - now I can see for myself the legendary quality!

Pics or it didn't happen.

Very real:

D'oh! I'm in! I love my SS Simplicity 18350 and a TI would be bada$$!

This thread has been just about everywhere and every now and then the ELA makes it's way back on topic..

It's inevitable with a thread this large and when people are waiting..

I see you are kinda new here. Super T is like a family where the users all get along, talk about personal stuff and shoot the breeze while waiting on the new mega David device.

It's been that way since my 1st Super T in early 2010..

Maybe it's changed now? I don't think so but I apologize for adding to off-topic chatter..

Sorry it got off-topic and I won't post here anymore since I am no longer in the ELA queue..

Off to stalk Super T for the Ti..

Peace owt~!

Oh raq, please dont leave us, you are still "one of us, one of us, one of us" :0

From what I know its basically the weight, for those that like light. As far as it being better, or stronger, not sure. I know that the reason titanium is used medically for implants is that it is lighter and just as strong as stainless steel. I know that there are different quality/grades of titanium just as there is for stainless steel. Medical grade titanium is the best and doesn't tarnish or discolour as much or at all.

What i do know it that I like the colour of titanium, its usually a tad grey and it is more expensive material.

P, are you a Canadian or English transplant?

 

[wongster360]

I thought the regular Simplicity 18350 had the channels in the top cap.. No???

It has the regular cross-cross channels

The Ti has been posted as "coming soon" on the Simplicity product page. Heads up!

No titanium enhanced parts , I wish. Im all for elective bionic body parts, and Id want them to look cool and machine like, none of those freaky rubber "skin like" types, give me cool shiny or matte black metal parts that you can see all the workings.

But I want all the parts manufactured by Super-T

I was just asking because of the extra "U" in colour

+1 for people that actually bike around!

My everyday ride is my Surly Crosscheck with front and rear Nice Racks in case I'm in it for the long haul. It's a 30lb+ cromoly tank of a bike!

 

[aziffel]

Bicycles?!!If it ain't got a motor besides me,I ain't ridin it.

Did you happen to see the cost?!

There is a saying here in the USA that when you make weapons, it's fun to use them so we'll use just about any excuse by any tiny country to unleash them. It hasn't made us a lot of friends. We need to rethink that.

I'm with you. If I have to get a bionic part, then I want it to look like Arnold's arm when he cut off the skin in T2 except with cool stuff that pops out of the biceps and forearms.

 

[icucme2]

I saw the cost.. Now i know why i paid $40 for a titanium drip tip..
