anything new here??

 

Since the omnipower lca thread recently was bumped, I figured to see if there are any updates on this upcoming product. I am eager to reduce unsprung weight on my car. It would be great if the front shock forks could also be reproduced in aluminum to further save weight.

 

I understand that F7 is testing them -- they will not release an unsafe product, and as hard as I try, F7 does not openly discuss any of their products that have not been released.

 

I know im bumping hella old thread. But I'm curious on these products. Any news yet?

 

bumping again just incase of update.

 

Sorry - no updates. This is proving quite challenging due to the forces involved in the front axle. We're still going through several prototype and have not found the right balance of safety, longevity and performance. We're going back and forth between several new prototypes to address critical safety issues.

 

This is a sign of an awesome company who take their time with R&D.

 

x2... I'm subscribed to this thread in order to take advantage of them when they're finally released.

 

The last post was a little over a year ago, and updates?

 

hey 2011 now I know you guys are still hard at work on it. Keep it up and I believe you'll definitely have em by end of 2011

 

Yes, I want to see these aswell! I have always wanted a FLCA option.

 

Id love to hear how these are coming along

 

ya its been years, what happened to this prototype

 

i was just asking about the omnipowers..are they not safe? but i would love to buy the fronts if f7 releases them...especialy with spherical bushings for dragracers to reduce wheel hop...

 

You guys could PM function7 to see if they have any more info that can share with you.

From what I have noticed they won't openly discuss things that they are currently making.

The fact that it has been so long should speak highly of Function7. For not just throwing crap out and letting it go.

 

Hi folks, thanks for checking in.

Our company policy prevents us from discussing products in development in any specific detail.

This is a product we have been working on for several years but have never released. Every product we make undergoes an extensive set of tests (each prototype goes through over 2 years of accelerated testing) and only when our engineers determine that the products meet our high safety and quality standards, it will then be released for sale to the public.

Currently, we have no ETA on this product.

can you at least verify to us that the product is under testing and will be released, so at least there is light at the end of this very long tunnel.

 

"This is a product we have been working on for several years but have never released

thats half of your question. If it will ever be released. who knows?

 

Is the product being tested? According to the last post, yes.

Will it ever be released? According to the last post, that's a matter to be determined AFTER the testing is complete. It's still too soon to say.
