He's 168, & that is a very explosive race distance.

People say the same about the (Frail) trellis' on our bikes.  And no... I don't recommend doing this to steel.

Aluminium is a beautiful thing.


Glad you liked it   [cheeky]


Edit: Pleasure to meet you, whoever you are.  :)

At some point.. Somewhere (internet most likely)  I've seen something of this nature before.  Very interesting design and concept.  I can't see it being more functional than a nice blade shaped CF frame.  It definitely goes to show what some engineering can get done though!
Sometimes when you say no, you really mean YES, that is why we have the safe word.. "FLÜGGÃ...ÆŽNKâˆ,â,¬ÄŒHIÅ'βØL∫ÊN"  If at any time the pleasure is too much, simply say the safe word, and we will stop"

I posted the pic of the road frame before, will try to post it again when I have time.

This was all about engineering.   I have ridden nothing but carbon race bikes in the past 5yrs. & Nothing...Nothing compares, Period.

Copy. Calibration error = humidity, altitude, attitude to tutu, distraction from tutu, stereotype naked rat bikes, human error due to heat, tutu and jealousy!

Thanks DucMouse. Can't say I'll be posting here all the time, I'm in LA, but I will try to pop in and say hi as much as I can. Besides I got to become friends with Duc-Stew before he headed back out your direction so I'm sure I'll be around a little.

That's a whole lot of carbon fiber! Bet it feels more like you're flying than riding, especially at 13lbs!   [thumbsup]

If it had wings, I think it would lift off. The bike & I together weigh 159


Fresh Pants, You & I combined weigh less than most guys, we'd have to take it for a ride, go back home & back over it in a car to break it. [laugh]
    That proto bike is a no go though, based on a the seatpost alone

I have been riding bmx since I learned to ride on two wheels, and still ride a bit. However, I have always wanted one of these:
