When are the ADA Spinners being released? I heard they might fit all rims, if thats true, will they fit Mach 12's? Also.. any idea on what pricing might be like? Thanks in advance.

The spinners are in their final prototyping stage and should be able to be released by the end of march or early april. Actually the spinners will only be sold as a complete setup, rim and two sided spinners and will not be able to be used on any other stock or billet rim. The pricing has not yet been finalized, but will be very affordable compared to the competition.

Dude, those spinners are so heckin tight! I saw the video on GPN & I said "I gotta get those the minute they come out!" I showed the video to some people @ hookupz and this one kid thought the background noise was from the spinners! :p I told him, the noise was just background noise, the spinners dont do that. But wouln't that be cool if they did! Those spinners are by far the best ones to date. The TGN spinners are LAME. I'm sorry, I like TGN products but they're terrible, and they're way overpriced. I would pay up to $200 for the ADA spinners, because it's the whole rim/tire/spinners. FAT! Keep up the good work ADA, ADA was the 1st place I came to when I started pedding. And I haven't left since.;) I wanted to sell the products @ my website, but the policy is a little to strict for me @ this time, someday! In the meantime, keep peddin ADAz got UR back!

$200 Is Over Priced. For a Set of Rims, You could have a Brand new Sport. $200 for a few pecies of Billet alluminum is a Rip.
I hope there less than that.

200 is a good price, hell most beadlock rims go for 150 or so.
And everything ADA makes is QUALITY, pay a little more and you get the best, and in this case, you pay a lot less(tgn spinners) and get the best(ADA).

ADA probably wont charge that much, but if they did it would be ok. look @ what your're getting for your money. and where can I get a brand new sport for $200? I wanna buy 4! seriously!

Uhhh 200+200=400.
Wouldnt You Want Matching rims with Spinners in front and Back?
It would look kinda Tacky only having them in the Front.

03-16-2004, 11:21 PM
most people get them in the front only. not me, i am getting them in the front and back, as long as they can take it. i just want them to hurry up and come out! does aDA have a store yet?

The TGN ones are pretty nice, but I dont think I would pay the price for them... kind of expensive.
However, the ADA ones are very nice for a resonable price.

The spinners are getting closer. They will hopefully be available within 2 weeks or so. No idea on price yet, as we have to make them to see how long they are going to take to make.
Yes, we have a store, it's online;) We have no plans of a walk-up retail store, sorry. Just check out our local dealers like Meyer and Mesa Motorsports.
YzAssracing.com
03-17-2004, 08:34 AM
I don't blame you guys for not having a storefront. I imagine it would be kinda a pain in the gluteus maximus. As for meyer etc, I rather buy it directly from the source. Nothing against them, but eliminating the middle man keeps the price lower. I thought the spinners were already made, that's cool. I would think $200 is reasonable, as long as they have the tire included. I don't know what ya'll are thinking but that's me. They are chrome aren't they?
Brooks
03-17-2004, 11:24 AM
Actually, the price should be the same, or even a little less, at Meyer or any other of our dealers. We do not sell below our suggested retail price.

03-17-2004, 03:35 PM
So what kind of price are we looking at? Could you give us an estimate on about how much they will be?

If those spinnerz are $200 each, I guess I will be blowin $400 then won't I? It's only money right? I mean I paid $400+ for the duallyz on my super go quad. I'am gonna pay almost $400 for slicks! $600 for a pro60, pedding aint cheap, it can be, but not if you want the best. I can't afford to to do this kinda stuff to cars, so i chose scooters! I don't work all day for nothing! Besides they're ADA, so your're gonna get quality, if it was trykriders, I wouldn't pay $20 for those cheap azz things.

Putting Spinners in the back is pointless and i highly doubt anyone will do it(or very few). So 200(or whatever the price is) is how much MOST of the buyers will pay.

You know your're absolutely right, putting spinnerz in the back is pointless. However, IF they look good enough, I may. But I think I may just get the ADA solid beadlock. I just remembered something though, I have the super sport homebuilders kit. Originally I bought the ADA prowlers for my ped, but they didn't fit? I hope that the spinnerz won't be that way! I tried & tried & could not get them to fit, I finally had to return them. They were too thin in the front, & to thick in the back? I have heard that sometimes the frame/forks have to be widened to accomdate certain wheels, is that correct? I will be real mad if they spinnerz don't fit on my ped!

I know for a fact that Im going to get a Front Spinner Rim.
Depending on the Price of the Rims, I might get a Back rim.
Even though half the Rim is coverd up, You can still see the Spinner, and Hopefully they will be functional in the Rear. Are The spinners Billet Aluminum?
If they are, You should offer them In Anodized Colors. It would be so Pimp to Have Polished Rims, With like Blue Spinners or What ever Color You desire, If not Ill just have them Powdercoated. Are there any Problems associated with the Brakes Hitting the Spinners? I know with My Brakes, I had to Set a Few washers between the Caliper and Fork to get the Calipers to stick out further to keep from Messing up my Rims.

I wanna wanna know is will they fit the super sport (homebuilders)? I have the s.s. & I bought some ADA prowlers, but they wouldn't fit. Too skinny in the front, too skinny in the back. But the sidewalk surfer wheels fit just fine? I have to have these spinners! Maybe someday I will grow up? So for all of US that like spinnerz, we're immature, childish, & need to "grow up". Ok. :)

I don't think that the spinnerz will be that cheap. That would be nice, but I highly doubt it . They've been working on them for awhile now, therefore blowing mad loot 2 insure that there won't be ANY problems. Unfortunately that aint free doing all that research. I wonder how much stuff they've had to throw away, materials,billet. I wish I could see how they're made, that would be cool if they had a video of that. How do you post in the classifieds section? I have a bigfoot 4 sale & some other partz.

Shouldn't the ADA spinnerz be out by now? Or @ least soon? Any info on what the cost might be for these circular beauties? I hope it's "reasonable", nothing against TGN, but theirs are ugly & overpriced. I like the ADA 1z because they look like real spinnerz sorta. The whole thing moves kinda, not just 1 part that costs $150. I love TGN products, but those spinners were a heartbreaker. I wonder how he's been selling them lately. I know that ADA better get a bunch of those spinners because they're gonna fly off the shelf, guaranteed! I just wanna be the 1st 1 2 have them, or 1 of the 1st 1z. I have set aside the money, now I'm just waiting. Patiently? :nono

Gopedding is a niche (at best) sport. The designs for peds usualy have 0-1 other application on a wider use/fan base. Pedders have it cheap compared to most sports, and any price problem seen is often determined due to the age group associated with peds. The culture of motorized scooters is very imature and would be more appropriate to a bunch of babies fighting over the last cookie..

My first Check Was only about $140 (after taxes,etc) working 30 Hours a Week @5.50 an Hour. $200 Is a lot of money to me. Im not about to work for a Month to Just buy A RIM.

My personal opinion is that it's nice 2 have the option(s) 2 buy acessories n stuff that's "expensive" but I don't think the sport in general should be so costly. I mean good grief, most parents can't afford goped parts let alone a "kid" with a 1st job or no job at all. It's pathetic how expensive gopedding has become. I think it's a result of greed myself. Sure I know that some of these parts are costly 2 make & that these companies are in it to make money. There's nothing wrong with that, but companies shouldn't be claiming 2 "support the sport" when they're ripping people off. That's why I like SIKK products, good stuff @ a reasonable price. The spinnerz, I wanted them really bad but now that it's taken so long 2 come out I don't know if I'm gonna buy them now. It's been like 2 months +, I know it takes time n all but geez louize. I just think that greed is killing the sport, that and the flamerz over @ gpn. :nono

That is not taken into fact when you're highly customizing your scooter, and if you have the money to do so, it shouldnt be worried about. Hell i see flybars on sports, those things cost more than the go-ped its self almost!
Back to subject:
I think the ADA spinners are just being improved and CNCd by our friends at ADA and should be out soon.
No worries :)

You have got to be the latest in the amazing never ending super funtastic idiots currently funking up our great sport. And your post is so amazingly bad i will have to break it down to even attempt to convey common sense to you.
It's pathetic how expensive gopedding has become.
Gopedding has always been exspensive, but only from a childs eye. The sport of GoPed's has it's main audience in the 10-20 y/o range (with of course our beloved acceptions). Such costs to that particular age bracket (10-16/17) automaticaly brings out the reaction that it is exspensive. It is only exspensive in direct relation to how much disposable income you have.
Sure I know that some of these parts are costly 2 make & that these companies are in it to make money.
If you checked your associates and actually knew the designers, and people involved in GoPed "HP" designs the margin of profit is very low. Most are old school riders who want to continue this sport, and find their creative outlet helping the sport. Nearly all people involved with GoPeds (on a design/supplier/dealer view) have other mainstream occupations. And don't even bother telling me dealers make "alot" from sales.
There's nothing wrong with that, but companies shouldn't be claiming 2 "support the sport" when they're ripping people off.
All companies support this sport. All design companies that is, and by no means make massive amounts of money or in any way "rip people off". One great example is companies/people that port our little 2 strokes. The actual cost of porting in the sport of GoPed's is tiny compared to MX or any other 2/4 stroke sport.
That's why I like SIKK products, good stuff @ a reasonable price.
Sikk benifit from using designs, and principals already well established in GoPed's to bring down costs. Most of their products are cast (cylinders for example) and do not require many man hours to produce. Sikk is by no way making any great leaps of bounds in this sport apart from the wallet factor.
I just think that greed is killing the sport, that and the flamerz over @ gpn.
Greed is not killing sport, it is people like you who mis-understand the core concepts in this sport that is killing it. Everybody has their own place in this sport, and some people might be a little safer if they remained there.
As far as GPN goes, well we don't want you anyway, you are annoying.

1st all if you want 2 start name calling we can do that. However my preference is to use actions not words. But I will attempt to disect your pathetic attempt to be intelligent. #1 YOU think that gopedding is in-expensive. So because YOU think it's expensive then everybody should? I bet if you took a survey of 100 people, parents, kids, whatever, they would tell you that $500 is alot of money 2 them. If gopedding is so "reasonable" than why are the "japanese" scooter companies thriving so much? 2nd f**k GPN, it's a disgrace 2 this sport, & that's what I think & many others. Everyday I see people just like YOU flaming on people just because they THINK they're something special. OR they're just insecure about themselves so they flame up on little kids. Wow, your're a real tought guy aren't you. How do you expect the sport 2 grow when losers @ GPN are flaming on "newbies" making them hate GPN? Go count the posts in the newbie section, the majority of responses there are negative. And the questions may be "annoying" but these people are new 2 the sport. I'm sure when you were new 2 the sport you werent mr. know it all like you are now? ALL design companies support the sport? If you honestly believe that I have a bridge 2 sell you. I won't even go into that because that's just pathetic if you honestly think that. SIKK-I never claimed that they were revoloutionizing the industry. But they are making the sport more affordable & desirable for people 2 join. Why pay $200 for something when you can buy $60 for it? Do you ever shop at Old Navy, Sears, JcPenny, Wal-Mart? Or do you only buy the "original" items? Yes, SIKK is making it more affordable, so you think that just because somebody makes something "original" they can charge the heck out of people? That's GREED, nothing short of greed. How else can you explain how the same item is half the price? You think it cost Ralph Lauren the more 2 produce his shirts than Old Navy pays? Doubt it, they're the same thing odviously but with a different symbol. Just like most goped parts. So tell me confucious, what's the "core concept of the sport"? Becuase lately it seems like GREED. I see how alot of the manufacturers are screwing over their dealers. Dumping their parts on people than dropping their prices, WITHOUT notice, & the dealers can't compete. That's what I would call GREED! What would you call it? I paid about $1300 or so 4 my Goped, your're telling me that that is not expensive? & I bought all SIKK toys products for my motor, if I would have bought the "others" it would have been way more than that. It's about time somebody made a cheaper alternative to the greedy sorry *** manufacturers. I hope their crapping their pants because they have a whole bunch of parts they can't sell for profit. They deserve it, the time of ripping people off is over. It's time for the companies 2 be honest with pricing, & honest to their dealers. It seems that your version of common sense is justifying greed in the sport. How else can you put it? So your're TRYING 2 tell me that NEARLY all the people involved in the sport aren't in it 4 the $$, but the fun of it, or whatever? They have other jobs so _______? Hmmm, then that's real stupid then, real stupid. I would like 2 see a place that doesn't do what they do for the money. And therez nothing wrong with that @ all, nothing. What I was saying is that it's getting out of hand, & I'm glad that there's finally being something done about it. Oh, and I'm not 10-20, I'm way older than that. I don't know your yearly income, but I make $55000+ per year, & $1200+ is "expensive" to me. Oh, & I have access to dealer costs & prices, so I'm not just making this up on my perception. I investigated this topic a bit. I may not be the "master" like you :bigl You can tell yourself whatever you want, the "secret" is out. Greed is not only killing gopedding, but the world. If you want 2 teach me any more lessons "master", I'd love 2 hear it. :bigl Oh yeah, and F*** GPN. I got something in store for them. :eek:

"well this product was cheap 2 make, but since motorcross charges this much than i should charge this much?" i could me misunderstanding you. i'm not going 2 be as bold as you as 2 claim 2 know what everybody thinks or does. i'm just blown away by what you THINK you know. do they have alot of goped races down under? alot of goped shops?
