#cycleframe

The Jayhawk bicycle #frame structure is constructed from primarily sheet, which can be any material on planet earth that comes in sheet form, unlike conventional tube frames where you are limited to carbon fiber and weldable metals - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1718333671777099

How do you make a #bicycle frame lighter, while also making sure it'll get noticed? Well, if you're the designers at Italy's Camard Milano, you eliminate the down tube and seat stays. The resulting LZR frame weighs just 2.7kg (6lb) is said to be just as strong and stiff as a conventional frame https://newatlas.com/camard-lzr-bicycle-frame/48516/

UK-based COFA Engineering showcased its own take on #bicycle full suspension, known as the NOAH system. The fork is lighter, as it doesn't contain any springs, dampers or other shock-absorbing hardware. The weight is instead moved toward the middle of the bike, thus reducing unsprung weight and improving the handling https://newatlas.com/noah-bicycle-suspension/31727/

Do you know how many #bicycle models with a frame made with no welding? And with the hinge wrapped round the seat tube? The industrial designer from Paris, Gaëtan Francq, has created an extraordinary frame design that sets his bicycle stand out from the rest. The new product is different not only in terms of appearance - at its core is a functionally collapsible design https://avialbikes.com/news/the-loop-at-the-base-of-bike-frame-design-by-gaetan-francq-studio/

The idea of using magnesium to build a bicycle frameset is nothing new. One of the first ever to hit the scene was Frank Kirk's 1980s bike that looked like Swiss cheese, albeit very tasty cheese https://www.autoevolution.com/news/ducati-s-mg-20-proves-that-a-magnesium-e-bike-is-possible-it-also-folds-down-164317.html#

Check out this futuristic bike concept by Steve Jenkins. Its frame features a single, uninterrupted loop, which breaks all sorts of conventions. The artist achieved this by using 3D printing technology, allowing for the seamless, fluid look https://mensgear.net/2018/12/continuous-loop-bicycle-by-steve-jenkins.html

NoBike’s frame consists of four triangular shaped forms. Design from DynaLab is created for lightness, it’s made out of aluminium, 4 mm thickness, and completely laser cut. The rider can alter the size and shape of the frame perfectly to his height and needs.
