G'day all,
Some of you may remember a while ago (September last year), I posted up some questions regarding user input for a new downhill race frame. Well its been a while and Kendal and I have done quite a bit of work on it.
Originally we had proposed to manufacture out of carbon. Time and depth of analysis required meant that we couldn't pursue this option for our first prototype. We are nearing manufacturing and have machined a few prototype parts out of foam. So hopefully of the next few months we will have a full working prototype rippin' a trail somewhere.
Here is the project proposal poster to get a bit of an idea of what it will look like (pending a few tweaks here and there).
A special thanks to:
