How it Began


It began in 2011 as a graduate design project on the design and fabrication of a wooden bicycle. The photo above is the first attempt at an all wooden frame, which I fondly refer to as V1. It has since been retired as it underwent some structural testing till failure. Many of the weaknesses of V1 were improved upon in V2, which has yet to be completed as seen below.


Fast forward a few years and we are back on track. With a dedicated workshop and a CNC router, I am now working on the projects full time. 



Back to the drawing board for 2015 to investigate new techniques for frame fabrication including mitered tube to tube and various composite lug moldings. Enjoy reading and I appreciate any comments and feedback!
