Howdy again guys, Thanks for the compliments, and the ideas to improve it. Today during school ive solved some structural problems with it.
top: the single berring to support that axel will be held with 2 berrings on a metal plate attached to the frame, oh also, the fact im not putting the axel through the seatpost is because it was an afterthought on my frist plans because it was harder to run it through, now that i solved my berring problems it should be easier. ALSO, my sprokets are going to be far smaller than what i have in the plans, they will also probably be right on the flat T of the frame (brain fart on the word atm), which will make it harder to get things hooked on it, i’ll also have some sort of sheetmetal, or plastic molded casing over it.
Bottom: I solved my problems with the action factor in my ‘pistons’ (or shocks), im going to make it look like a piston for the most part, but it’s going to be a spring system (i’ll post a sketch later) and that will give me the stability of the piston, with the reaction and play of a spring. I’m also going to try and get really heavy duty springs, i’ll play with some and find whats right. My chain tensioner is going down just to my spring/piston idea, thats what the shaft is going to be (i hope, depends) i’ll have some plates welded mabye to give it a stopping point so i doesnt derail.
Cranks: My cranks will stay in the same place and everything that they are, i’m going to reinforce how their mounted, by puting a metal plate along the side of the frame, unless my bike tubing is good enough.
Tire: im going to limit how much travel it has, i’m going to allow it 3’’ probably, depending on my springs. I might also have a curved t on my frame, so my tire can move. My tire is just gonna be a 20’’ off my old nimbus freestyle (which i totaly wrecked)
Overall: i solved all my problems with help from you guys, my friends, and my dad and brother. Thank you so much peoplez , I hope to get started on it this weekend mabye, just need to go to a junk pile. I’ll be able to scavange all my parts hopefully. I’m gonna start drawing more plans tonight, well, tracing the ones i have i think, because i want the originals.
p.s. thanks John:D
