check out my new cage!!!

[trich88]

here are the steps to take to pin it in like i said i bout these beffier and bigger pins at a hardware store they work just as the screws would but much easier to take on and off...You just have to repeat these steps for each of the 4 points where the cage mounts.... works great just got done bashing it today!! if you have any other questions just ask...

The cage looks good, But IMO its not going to last long. The mounting with that thin little clip WILL buckle. That clip isnt strong enough to hold the bumper on to the bulkhead and with no bulkhead braces, your asking for it. To me it looks like a lot of weight for the little protection it gives. Personally I like the New Era 3pt cage. It has to be ALOT lighter than this and offers the same protection.

cage

Isnt one of the main points of a cage, to protect the engine? The head looks way out in the open..
Over all it looks cool though!

i also have that cage and yep you still hit head on ground when bashing

It may not be strong enough but isn't that what RC is all about? I mean, I like it and I'm sure most of us do. I really like the way it hooks on. Cool cage man!
