Atomic Carbon DB-01 Rear Shock Towers
Hi All,
I've been email Jonathan at Atomic Carbon and he is willing to produce some modified rear shock towers for the DB-01 that can run the TRF 501X shocks without all the associated problems with their extra length. The only downside is that to make it economical enough a minimum order quantity of 10 is required. I haven't got a quote at the moment as that will all depend on the final design/quantity ordered. Obviously, I'll have one but are there 9 others of you out there that are interested? If you are can you add you names to the post and then I'll go back to Jonathan. Cheers, Ian

I've just had news on a rough price back from Jonathan.
The price (based on being made from 4mm carbon fibre and an order of 10) will be in the region of £10 - £14 each + postage. The firm price from Atomic Carbon will be known once drawings have been made and the exact area of CF is known per tower and also on the total amount of towers purchased. Once again, these prices are only estimates but will be formed up when the design is finalised and the quantity is known. If you would like once, please add your name to the thread so I can collate numbers.

Hi Guys,
Sorry for the pause in getting back to you - I haven't noticed the thread appearing on my "unread posts" bit. We're not at the 10 towers needed for Jonathan to make them at a reasonable price yet , as soon as we get the numbers required I'll be in contact with him again. For the record I have the following interest: Me - 1 DCM - 1 (maybe 2) GA - 2 dimblum - 1 Eddie168 - 1 robbo145 - 1 AJ - 1 So that's 8 for definite (9 possibly) so ideally I'd like to get to 10 definite before placing the order (otherwise I'm going to be left out of pocket and I don't want that to happen). I was thinking about delivery - I will get them all sent to me and then I will distribute them out to all of you for cost (DCM will get a personal delivery!) if that is OK? Ian

If all goes well and we get enough people that want the shock towers, will you be shipping to the states?

Excellent. Look forward to the next step. Do you want a Paypal deposit or anything?

Hi there, I would be interested in a set of these too, I can pay by cheque/paypal or whatever.
Does the price drop a little, if more people are interested? |

Excellent, that's the 10 we need now then
I'm email Jonathan when I get back from work with the request. I've got to send him an original off to get the basic size from before it can adjusted for what we want, drawn up and the exact area of CF calculated (it will be 4mm and bullet proof!). Once that happens I can get a quote and lead times etc. I don't know how long the process will take but as soon as I know anything I'll update the thread. When a price is known, I will be looking to take a non-refundable deposit of 50% (as I'll have to pay everything up front). I will PM all concerned with my PayPal address (apart from DCM who can give me the cash). I will then be looking for the remainder of the price plus shipping once the total amount is known. I hope that is acceptable to all. Ian

Quote:
Remember though, it is only the rear tower being made and it will be modified to allow the use of the TRF shocks from the 501X (they are longer than the standard DB-01 items). The front tower works fine with the upgraded shocks.
