liquidmetal..... would it be good for parts? I know the stuff is ultra strong, durable, and light. But the real question is, will it work well for parts. also, is it viable pricewise.

i have a liquid metal raquet, and i can atest that it is really light and responsive. another way they are strong is they can be injection molded, hence liquid metal.

Having just done some reading on it it does seem likely that it would be beneficial in some unicycle applications. Judging by the zirconium and Ti content it will be pretty expensive, and the set-up costs for high pressure injection moulding are horrendous.
