wolud there be a matching front shockpad?
You could use the same in front even without motors up there, you can use the channels for routing lighting wires as well
@Alphamail will have to confirm but I can’t imagine it’s any cheaper making an additional solid one, if anything would keep prices up for both

Running two of the same would be the best. A solid one would be more expensive to pour as well as make the extreme high res 3d plugs we use (see picture). Quantity will definitely bring the cost down because with a short run product, you need to amortize the multiple 3d’s (6 of them to maximize our mold base dimensions), the tooling compound (this adds up to around $1,000.00 for the first mold) to make the mold and the cost of running 6 parts per lot and oven curing them for 16 hours. The higher commitment here, the cheaper the parts can be!

I want some tunnel risers. 4, 8, or maybe 12 depending how long it takes for them to come to fruition. I have a couple builds in progress now. Great job @Alphamail and @scepterr!!!

Once we have an indication of overall interest and decide if it makes sense to do, we can have production available in less than a month. Color can be somewhat custom since we pour 6 at a time! I find it interesting that Black is leading the charge!

Don’t want to speak for anyone, but I think many would be interested in side panels where you can sit the bulet connectors. Otherwise great looking shockpad!

The idea, atleast on my part, is that it’s more universal, can use different bullet sizes, different angles, can be used purely for routing wires not just holding bullets You could hardwire motor to vesc with no connections in between

Not related to the current discussion about the risers but I think it might be quite interesting to have urethane bumper guards

We have made Lexan ones that performed beautifully! They can survive a runaway curb hit of over 30 mph

Ohh, wait a second. It IS related to risers. Cable eRisers with bumper guards? Sick

The ones I made were only .250" thick and could take a major impact. When damaged, you just moved them a hole or two forward and cut or sanded down the damaged part

Awesome, I hope this gets up. @scepterr do you think you should start a new topic promoting the “tunnel riser” and linking back to your poll in this topic so we get as many as possible on board?
Not everyone is signed up to track this topic so we could miss a few…

Why did we ditch the designs with holes for bullets on top?

Anything with Bullets in the current environment may be in bad taste…like this comment might be

If you are referring to the Tunnel Risers, we should have some news in a couple of days
