OBJECTIVE: Less weight - more strength
SOLUTION: Carbon / Hybrid / Honeycomb
Inexpensive non-metal accessories and parts are mostly manufactured out of PVC / ABS or other Plastics.
Performing strength for structural use, metal is most often the only choice.
But let the above be the PAST and move on into the FUTURE !
Modern engineering calls for the above objective and HIPRO is one of the manufacturers + suppliers of this modern technology.

WEIGHT - factor
Original PVC -> vs. <- HIPRO HYBRID
59.163 gr. / 913 grains 10.503 gr. / 162 grains
(Both parts have the exact same size and form and shows a motorcycle side cover for the YAMAHA R1)

#1: The impact force is approximately 100 kg. (220 lbs.). Note the impact area with sharp edges and corners.
#2: After hammer is released. Note the flexibility of the material compared to the impact at picture #1. Also the originally sharp edges aren't damaged nor cracked, just deformed.
#3: Area inside the part after impact. Note the sharp impact edge but no crack.
#4: Gentle pressure by finger against the deformed area. The piece is back into the original shape.
#5: Inside area after deformation is corrected at picture #4.
#6: Outside area after deformation is corrected.
OVERALL: HYBRID has the flexibility to withstand tremendous impact forces without cracking or breaking apart. In addition to it's enormous strength, it is the lightest material available as of today.
