    Its true that the definition may very depending who your talking to, but you should agree an engineered product should never dip below acceptable. Have the customers here found their frames acceptable so far? If the frame were engineered they wouldnt be 10 months late, engineering extends well in to product planning/shipping scheduling/delivery dates.

    What I posted earlier was my definition of engineered, as an engineer myself....I would never accept anything less. Engineers who do accept less are huge liabilities.
    I would never dispute your right to your own personal definition but generally speaking the accepted definitions of words in common communications can be found in general-purpose dictionaries, and in those the definition of 'engineer' is quite a bit less specific than yours. After all, we hear about sports teams "engineering" comebacks all the time.

    In common discussion a term like "engineered to a high standard" or "professionally engineered" might be more appropriate for the thought you are trying to convey.

    well then we should look at the context it was used:

    ahem....



    insixdays777: because it would really only take a few hours for someone to retrofit a frame using his method of action. To put it into production would take longer.....but none of this matters because he contradicted EVERY claim for not posing pictures of production frames when he gave us detailed internal photos of the prototype in the manual.

    Ive said this at least 3 times now: He could have gave general photos that showed no internal workings....i dont think anyone would dispute he was working on frames if he posted a blurry picture of 100 frames covering a table, because why else would he have 100 frames lying around? His design would not be shared, and the customers would have gained proof that he was doing something......sounds like a win win situation to me, too bad Garf didnt see it that way. Instead he released a how to guide of copying his frame design in the form of his manual.

    I'd say it was pretty accurate to describe someone who designed a product to perform within certain parameters.

    Please, the only worthwhile thing he ever did was apologize for alleged "racist" comments from a private cell phone conversation between he and his son. Why was that worthwhile you may ask? It was worthwhile because it showed how weak of a person he really is, willing to do anything to save face even if it means not standing behind what he said.*

    Hmm, yet you feel the need to post and call me out? Take a step back and realize that my comment regarding Duane Chapman was a very true and very awesome one.

    Dude, you dont have to be a douche every day of your life Kizzy. Im guessing its a personal choice though so maybe you do. This thread was OT until you chimed in (again). People like you are the reason I moved out of Miami. :e-turd:



    Sooooo, back OT; doesnt anyone on AO live within driving distance to Garf's shop?

    J Kizzy,

    The reason I called you out is becasue I have a vested interest in this thread... I am one of the people who purchased a G-Force Frame and don't like it when people come in and Thread Crap... That is all,,, nothing else... When you can find it in yourself to have a valid point concerning said product (G-Force Frame) of this thread please feel free to post it up...

    Thank You

    Seems like only one guy in this thread. And by that I mean you obviously got smacked in the face with the stupid club. Go troll somewhere else.

    Now I wanna see a gforce frame , pull faster than a lot of these 15bps diy frames, which look a lot better, I'd take a triton, umf, logic vert, chimera, airwalk v2, airwalk v2, heck I think the ulf and the intelliframe look better simply because u can use rpg triggers

    I thought the whole allure of this set up was an internal LPR setup that was supposed to be unique to the industry.... I don't see an LPR anywhere.

    Well I am sure glad that you all didn't get hosed out of your money ala Lee Kinney, but I am not sure, at least from looks alone, that you didn't get taken for a ride.

    Now someone post a vid of this 'revolutionary' design in action.. .

    Is that an MSV-1 Valve in there?
    Interesting ram... or whatever that silver thing is.

    EDIT: if you spin the frame really fast it would be revolutionary.
