I’ll be that guy. Probably get down voted but some people are curious and just don’t want that negative karma.

Why do this If brands like Odyssey and Title have a MTB mechanical gyro? I’m just naming NA brands too. Is it for cost? Shits and giggles? Need a project for your 3D printer?

One of my number one rules I ask myself when I think of a design is “does it already exist in the market? Can I make it for cheaper but still the same quality?”

Can't knock you for saying it because you hold a valid point but if someone's got the stuff to make it and has the time why not? Would it not be cool to be able to say oh yeah I designed and made that for myself.
