We get asked this a lot. Mainly by 8 yr old boys, but also by parents wondering will it suit their son or daughters bike. We think it's because we generally use BMX's for our displays because they look cool. Well, we're here to put the record straight......
....The answer: YES
Turbospoke works on all sorts of bikes from racers to mountain bikes and cool custom cruisers to choppers. As long as your bike has a spoked rear wheel and the frame size is within the range for fitment (which 95% of bikes are) then it'll work and sound totally awesome.
Here are a couple of pictures of Turbospokes fitted to a mountain bike and a Raleigh Chopper. Check out the gallery for more pics.
Thanks to Brian Mullin for supplying the mountain bike pic and a great article here.
We get asked this all the time, and you would be forgiven for thinking that it is. With it's solid realistic shape and cool satin silver finish it looks just like a real motorbike exhaust pipe.
However it's not made of metal at all, it is in fact made of plastic!
People are amazed when they hold the exhaust pipe in their hands and realise that it's really really light and surprisingly flexible. This video demonstrates what we're talking about.
It's important that the exhaust be as flexible and durable as possible to withstand the bumps and knocks that it will suffer during its life and so it has been made from a specially formulated plastic which returns to its normal shape but also withstands a serious amount of punishment.
Everybody here at Turbospoke would like to thank all of our customers and wish you a very Happy New Year and a prosperous 2010.
