PowersBikeWorx has some sweet *** looking cages. Probably one of the best looking I've ever seen

More testing has been completed for 905 Cages... Unfortunatly.
Two front flips and a couple highside flips from a BAD slapper during an endo. My subframe broke every place it could and scraped the tail a little, with ZERO other damage.
I just started endo's with my dirtbike bars on and got way too comfortable too fast, rolling them high and off the brake at around 80. The slapper was so bad it broke both my steering stops on the frame, cocked to one side, the tire caught and launched me.... anyways it was a good time!!!
Latez.
i need a damper.

1) no bar under the bike....so you dont have to worry about it slamming everytime you come off a wheelie.
2) tucked in so you can keep them on for normal rides. no worry about hitting them and wrecking on corners.
3) 12 bars have wider surface for scrapes.
4) hundred bucks cheaper

This allows us to have this place to converse. As far as my cages and other products go, can you for one minute blame me for protecting the idea and the place I spend a lot of money to advertise. I hear the word monopoly mentioned and there seems to be a few misconceptions. When I filed for the patents I submitted a few ideas to cover my bases and the concept along with every metal and a broad write up as to what that concept is. Because of the new nature of this patent if all goes well the government will protect that idea for twenty years and any attempt or configuration to do what FI started will be an infringement on that patent. (This is NO different from you trying to start a MC Donald's without buying the rights.) It was written to cover any configuration or different designs that you have seen. One of my original designs is very similar to what you have seen made by a few other companies and there are several reasons I chose not to manufacture those designs.
#1. In the way of the riders legs.
#2. when the cage bends (and they will all bend) the bolts that hold the cage in place are bent and when you try to remove those bent bolts from a cage that is completely welded nothing gives and that bent bolt rips the aluminum out of the head or mount.
#3. We have smacked curbs when ridding and half shell cages do NOT guard the undercarriage
#4. When you bend or grind through the cage you have to replace entire cage.
#5. Does not give ample room between bike and ground in the event the rider is caught underneath.
#6. The ability to repeat in manufacturing.
#7. Does NOT guard the upper, clip on, or levers as well.
#8. To Ridged has great potential for stress cracking the frame.
#9. Not aesthetically pleasing to the average rider that just wants to protect a common street bike.
#10 Because of rear mounts of cage it has greater potential of injuring rider in a fall.
#11. I ride too and these different designs were tested here In Texas a long time ago and the current design was overall the best.
The FI cages are not without fault but every day we are working to make things better and stronger without damage to the bike or rider. I have pro's all over testing the new ideas and giving constructive and honest feed back and we have a great set up because of it. To guy's and gal's who have purchased from us we have extended great appreciation and product assistance especially when a change in manufacturing occurred.
The one thing I ask is will you quit painting this horrible picture of what FI is because right now it just a couple of guy's who had a great idea and want make a living and ride.

But in all honesty...ive seen both cage designs in action........They work different and different bikes.Some bikes work with the F I Cage and some don't. Do you agree Mr. Barnes?

Re: Battle of the cages poll. Who makes the best and why?
everything depends on the angle of the dangle.
what people fail to mention when bad mouthing FI is that they tossed their bike at some redonkulous angle that no cage would handle.
everyone needs to reread what tim wrote...HE HAS TESTED ALL OTHER FORMS OF CAGES, all these new designs are the very same designs that he has thrown out the window. for the best R and D, FI is where it is at...
not saying these new cages suck, but FI has been there, done that, and now do something different...
keep it coming,
