  1. What was wrong with your previous design, the one with the T-handle,
    that your current design fixes? The previous design looked promising to
    me.

  2. Cokering means speed which means dismounts will almost certainly be
    forward. And young man, I fear that the first time you fly off your
    Coker that metal monstrosity is gonna rip your package clean off your
    body.

  4. I think your idea needs more angles. and perhaps it could be a bit more
    intrusive

  7. I really don't need a handle for freestyle that much, and what I have is
    fine. Evan, you don't spell can't "hant." It's "can't" Also, does you
    having my name in your sig make you jealous of not being able to have
    me? 😉

  8. Evan,

    I'd like to see the result of your approach with an oval instead of a
    square. Do you have the tools to bend a pipe? If so, bend two 'C'
    shaped pipes, and add 4 inch connectors. Same basic design, but round
    instead of square.

    Then you have an oval shaped handle. If you need to slide off the
    front, at least you have something rounded to slide over. Should be
    equally functional, though.

    G'luck.

  12. Evan, I really don't want this to turn into a big spam fest because I am
    trying to keep my calm as I always do. Maybe we should quit arguing,
    but thanks for the sig addition (see below)! 😉

  14. Why are you and a few others the only ones who think I spam? Just quit
    bugging me about it, OK? Let's just leave this little incident behind.
    All this is hilarious....arguing on the net is like running in the
    special olympics; even if you win, you're still retarded.

    Well if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black.

    *bull [censored]! you dont keep your cool...*

    Did anyone else find that funny. Evan you used to not bother me but you
    sure are trying. Both you guys should just stop fighting or take it
    eleswhere. Evan no one really cares what Tyler does to you. And Tyler
    (you're staring to bother me to) no one really cares what you do to Evan
    or what he says you do, so if you just ignore all his posts about you
    and don't post any about him, the fights and flame wars won't start. I
    think every thread these guys ruin they should lose posting priviledges
    for a couple days.

    Back on topic. Evan I think its sweet you have the ability to do these
    things and can think them up. But I think your designs have to much to
    get your hands caught up in. The Miyata and KH are out of the way and
    easy to release. The Reeder gets a little more complicated but its still
    a breeze. There is no real way to get caught in those. Yours are a
    little more easy. Tone em down a bit. I think you are over thinking it.
    But then again, I could be completely wrong and these could be the best
    things since something good. You are in Cali right (tons of good
    riders), so you should get some established riders to give them a test
    if they are willing, then people might get interested in them.

    Keep them coming and something great will come out. As Gretzky said "You
    miss 100 % of the shots you don't take," that fits in here somehow.

  20. wow. the community bashes tyler/evan hardcore, so they bash eachother in
    an attempt to be seen as better than the other. jeez.

    Evan- you apparently have some skills. Way to go on your handle, I
    certainly couldn't make one. However, I really hope it's not a finished
    product. I like the idea posted a ways back about making it with bent
    pipe so it's kinda round. Also, I think most people don't need that much
    space for their hands. I sure don't, I get along fine with a standard KH
    handle. You could make a nice small oval one, and it would be a true
    innovation in handles. I really like the open handle style where it's a
    bar you grab, so I would love to see a handle like this.

    I think (hope) that most of what was posted previously in this thread
    was constructive criticism. Listen to it, think about it, maybe use it,
    and you will have a better handle when you make another.
