" CF " Frame

hello guys.
Today I finisched my “CF” KH frame.
Tell me what you think about it :wink: :smiley:




Watch it good ! it can be a trick :astonished: :roll_eyes:

Finaly he posts the damm pictures :stuck_out_tongue:
It’s cool, can’t waith to ride that the sunday :stuck_out_tongue:

umm, it looks nice :slight_smile:

I think it looks really good! How did you do that?

looks hawt :sunglasses: is it actually cf or just a exentric paint job?

I must be honest and it’s a sort of Carbon sticker that fits around the frame when you heat it and let it cool off;)
On the photo’s it isn’t that cool but in real life it looks awesome :sunglasses: :smiley:

That’s EXACTLY what I was thinking! It looks like a standard KH frame that has been “texture” coated. If not, what does it weigh?

Ok cool, where can I find that stuff? I want to do my muni!:smiley:

that is so sick looking, it would be a lot better if it was really carbon fiber, but yeah thats obvious, as the CF job is tooo perfect.
i want it, will you give it to me for my birthday?

I found it in a Car Tuning - Shop in my neighbourhood.
But if you buy something like this, you have to ask if it fits small surfaces and if it can be placed with a hairdryer to heat the foil and morf it like you want it;)

Nice look! I have a “real” CF frame in my garage, so now I wonder which is lighter… :slight_smile: Definitely a nice change from the same KH blue everyone else has.

I’m going to paint the Hub in the same color as my seatpostclamp.
Than it’s gonna be a HOt :astonished: ride :sunglasses:

Pics?

so nice! Are you going to Moab?

looks really cool! How much does the tape cost?

The welds at the crown probably give it away that is can’t be carbon fiber

Nice look to it, not sure you’re going to like it when it gets nicked from falling off…

Nope, But I’m going to Fluck …? :smiley: :wink:

If that happens, i just melt some new on the spots where it’s rugged.:slight_smile: It’s very easy to take it off with a hot air gun and put a new stroke back on

:smiley: Yes, real carbon fiber would be cool :smiley: ( if someone pays it for me ) :roll_eyes:

Probably similar to the 4th photo down on this page. It’s an aluminium crown joining the legs and seat tube together with machined alloy bearing housings.

Roger Davies made a few of these carbon fibre frames a few years ago but they were too labour intensive to produce in huge numbers. Roger has a couple, Connie has one, John has one, Rocket has one (the one in the photo), and a few other people have them.
