but there only couple custom made parts, fair enough if they where being massed produced by a big company or they was exact copys being made to undercut you your prices chris ????, no diff to the guys on ebay selling the rear pods. other comapnys make custom parts for other cars dont they, just my 2 pence

Maybe Chris wouldnt have been so anoyed if he was asked first dont you think.
Maybe there could have been a deal done so Chris could have sold them and they would both been happy then as more could be sold on the Mardave brand name. |

No, there's been plenty of people selling one thing or the other on this forum and other forum's to make things to either add better performance or reliability. Why should chris from mardave take royalties from these parts just because somebody else has had an idea to make them. Fair play to GIXXER i say.

 At the end of the day these parts would not be allowed at a sanctioned event so you would have to still buy chris's plastic parts.

 Not a copy. I've made my own wishbones out of 6mm carbonfibre, just for fun. The holes are the same to fit the chassis, but they're a slightly different shape (better  ) so not copies.

Been down this road once many years ago and its Called
"Copyright" The English law is quite funny at times But when the police come banging on your door with a warrant and TAKE EVERY THING Connected to what ever makes them  So if there made at your place of work you better tell ya boss or sort it out with Chris A.S.A.P before you Loose every thing I kid you not been there done that never again its not funny I can tell you |

nice parts,but were does it stop ! there use to be a thing at club level were everybody would use the same stuff ,it took 10 years for countersunk chassis to be allowed. everyone is doing there own thing .it isnt a £50 pound car any more to be competitive,drivers crave more speed faster parts ,if u want bling buy a saloon car you can throw as much money at them as u like,i race against bald eagle ,if he wins does it mean i have to buy an alloy diff ? lets get back to basics cheap fast racing ,there lovely parts but if u ask me there cheating ,and yes i do make the nylon battery holders but these are to keep people racing and not to gain an unfair advantage,chris has got a living to make ,you carnt blame him

. . . . . ( and a good one I would say )So there for not a copy. . . There not the same as cobra battery holders or the Lexan / ABS ones so there for not a problem A copy is a copy is a copy . . . cutting another slot in it or making it out of. . ally / steel / wood / nylon / brass / 2mm shorter / longer BUT it does the same thing. . . IS A COPY Same as the A arms. . . drilling the king pin at an angle does not make it differant So there for again its A COPY LOL tell you what tape Top Gear off the TV and go sell it at a boot market and see what happens . . . It's called copyright theft Like I said been there done that and got thrown a book the size of the yellow pages all on copyright . . . Long story but you get the drift . . . Talk to Chris Make him an offer. . . cut a deal. . . its cheaper in the long run But putting an ally hub and the motor all on the same side means more lead on the other side to balance it out

Hmm. How old is the design for the Mardave arms and are they patented or just registered designs?

arnt you contradicting yourself?read what you have just said!
if i was gixxer id get in touch with chris and talk about new designs for alloy parts and come to some sort of arrangement with him. i know hes making copies of his parts and it doenst matter how old the designs are if they have copyright or what ever it is he will be able to prosecute him for it,it doent matter if they are slightly difference in appearance everything else is the same.
