get a load of this!

Looks like you got it all sorted then, lighter is definitely the way to go but keeping it strong as well. Having slots cut between the tubes is a proven weight reducer, especially in the latest Rat Impys.

Go for it mate, load it up with Red Bull instead of AIR and its gonna be even lighter

matt, what is it with you and losing weight off ya cocker. get down the gym ya pansy
now if you have muchos dollars to spare, perhaps this is the answer you are after. with a turtle conversion, this would be the lightest cocker body around surely.

that be a featherlite merlin mini. basically thats as 'bare to the bone' as a cocker can get.
like i said, a turtlisation (cool new word there) along with the things you have planned wouldnt even register on the scales.
it looks like the metal between the tubes has been milled out, but cant quite see.

holy **** that thing has gotta be so light!
mmmm now where from and how much! if its a merlin then thats aka aint it?

mr collier? where are you?

 

[Mikey D]

indeed it is AKA.
its like those royal mail adverts 'saw this and thought of you'

oooh that thing with AKA internals and sidewinder, plus turtle.

wow, small, very light, and very very efficient and consistant.
lets just hope you got some skills dude (and some money)

 

[jahlad]

lol yeah im guessing that an aka body aint gonna be cheap...then i gotta start cutting it up!

 

[Mikey D]

well you know the man to speak to.
typical thing is tho, its nearly half the total mass of a normal body, but you are gonna be paying more for it.
ah well, give us a shout if you decide to give it a go, would very much like to see it happen

 

[jahlad]

well im definatly planning on doing something more to the turtle just not sure what yet, i have a few options im concidering
