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.

Re: my ******* sick innovations piece of **** subframe cage
its at least a 1/2 inch off i can't get pictures i don't have a digital camera. i can't force it i had my roomate help me, i even tried hitting the tabs with a rubber mallet but im not gonna weaken my subframe trying to get this **** on.
i mean come on, all the other products are great and fit awesome but i paid what a regular cage costs for less material and some bmx pegs and it ******* sucks when i have to wait 2 weeks and winter is approaching any day and it comes in with bad measurements

well that sucks......maybe they sent the wrong cage by mistake , make sure the mounting holes are right and if they are then bend the subcage not your subframe ...
you don't want to flex your subframe but the cage is steel so you can bend that

Waiting 4 weeks to get a round bar and cage is different than waiting and getting a product that doesn't even mount, and leaves you with the product you paid for and nothing to show for it.
If you can get him to answer his phone fine, but I have to work 60 hours a week I don't have time to be calling him every 10 minutes hoping he'll finally answer

no way, the way it's reinforced there ain't no way i could bend that ****, it barely has enough room to go over the tabs = no leverage to bend

Re: my ******* sick innovations piece of **** subframe cage
it's gonna snow this weekend so i really dont want to wait for another one, i'm gonna buy a dremel tomorrow and shave off as little as possible slowly on each tab til it'll slide on, i hate doing modifications to get parts to fit on a mint bike
