I want to see the profile hub in action. I like my EZRA freecoaster, but the clipping sound is annoying.

does anyone have any suggestions for a material to work as a clutch plate instead of the delrin one used in the ezra freecoaster? gunna alter/improve the design for one of my designs for my freecoaster. I've only just started to look into this part of it, and though maybe tungsten carbide? but would it be easily machinable?

http://instagram.com/p/fgD1uFF5yh So yeah.... I'll just leave this here... OTX Design the people behind Odyssey/Sunday/G-Sport... "We've been toying around with new Frecoaster designs for YEARS, So to say we are stoked on the contents of this box is an understatement. More Info Soon" DAFUQ!!!! Could this be a G-Sport Homercoaster? (Tis what i call them lol) Or maybe Odyssey have been working on one secretly?! A Few of their team are on Coasters, Coasters are hot shit right now they WILL sell... |

no way it's a Gcoaster. Gcoaster is the real life equivalent of the 5k wheelset. It's not real

Update on the Profile Freecoaster from Tyler Gilliard (Pro Flatlander!)
Alright guys, here's an update on this free coaster.
I had the opportunity to test ride the first prototype version of it today. 10 Production version prototypes will be ready by the end of next week and put through vigorous testing by 9 Profile factory riders and myself.
This is what I can tell you about the hub:
-It is a true female axle system with all of Profile's bolt options.
-It will be compatible with a 14mm axle
-The internals will be heat treated
-It sounds like a cassette hub until disengaged
-3 slack options that are incredibly easy to adjust
-With chromoly driver and axle bolts, the hub weighs 430 grams
-No EZRA style popping noise
-It did not slip and engaged smoothly AND promptly
-In the event of not disengaging before going into tricks that cause the back wheel to roll backwards, the hub will disengage into freecoast mode on it's own. This is great if you are riding back wheel and hit your pedal causing the hub to engage, because within 1/8 or so of a crank revolution, the hub will disengage back into freecoast mode.
This is all I can say.
