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.
