im not going to get into a geometry fight here but any weight added above the center of gravity actually helps stoppies and the subcages are not that heavy ,well OMR SUBCAGES are not that heavy..lol

Re: my ******* sick innovations piece of **** subframe cage
and i tried with the pegs on and no luck, also they aren't tapped deep enough (or there is too much debris inside) and i cannot get the bolts bottom out before it clamps onto the cage. i thought it would mention it at least. a slightly shorter bolt is an easy fix i just wish i could get this thing on my bike.

Re: my ******* sick innovations piece of **** subframe cage
I have been helpin him to try and put it on the past 2 nights. Its off by too much to get on theres no way. So obviosly there was a mistake made. No ones perfect though. The cage is ******* sick though im geting one for my 636 for sure. He will have to get ahold of ian and ship it back or work something out with it or whatever. But it is off by allmost a quater inch.........

Re: my ******* sick innovations piece of **** subframe cage
We narrowed it to the bracket. It slips on sort of tight but rather easily on the left side on both tabs, but the right side woudln't go on. The right side of the bracket is too narrow to fit it on, my subframe is 9 1/2 inches and the si cage is 9 3/8ths on one side and 9 1/4 on the other side, the 3/8ths side while sort of difficult goes on, the 1/4 side will not budge.
we tried hooking the pegs on pulling as hard as we could, bolting in one side and ratchet strapping the other, pry bars, hammers, pushing the opposite side with our foots, bending the tabs in with a wrench, etc, and no go.
The only reason I get so frustrated is I can never get ahold of Ian. Even when he says hes available for calls during business hours I never get a reply, I leave voicemails etc, on the work number and don't get a reply.

Re: my ******* sick innovations piece of **** subframe cage
doesn't fit. the brackets are too narrow and it wont fit over the tabs. I have a brand new 03 f4i and the subframe has absolutely no damage. All I looked forward to was being able to afford a subcage then I waited 2 weeks and got a ******* junk *** piece of ****
now i have to grind the **** out of it to even fit it over the tabs, and I can't get ahold of Ian or get him to return my calls.

I prefer solid myself, but they are SOLID. With certain wrecks they can take a hard hit. Foldable is a good idea.
