Carbon illness

Another buggier wanting to get into freestyling. This builder has patternmaking skills in a composite boat building workshop though need the metal parts for the divinycell core carbon frame.

His frame consists of a semi-teardrop shape profile and the headset is a mating fit over it.


To keep weight down we considered 20mm thickwall tube for the stubs and front axle. You can also see the head set abgle had to be adjust to get the right lead angle on the fork since the down tube section of the carbon frame was to shallow.
