Framebuilding: Special Projects Team
We’ve been working on a new project bike code named SOURCE. It’ll be public soon. In the meantime, here are a few images of Skip working on the frame’s rear triangle.
Skip checking the bending accuracy on our three-dimensional dropped chainstay design. All of the bends are in multiple planes. Complex to machine, but the performance benefits are many: Stiffer, shorter, and more tire clearance.Skip machining FlowState chainstays. A new design for a special project. Those hands have built frames for more than 30 years. He’s a master framebuilder times ten.Chainstays and seat stays ready for welding. Each of the four stays have multiple bends in multiple planes for optimal performance.Did you know that Shimano makes Dura-Ace level fixtures? They don’t. But Seven does, sometimes. We call it found object fixturing.
