Building a new bike 2.0

Hans is working on building up a completly new bike. Luckely he could convince Calvin Moes to design a new bike for us. Here you see the result of a lot of simulations Calvin has done for us. Clearly you can see the similarity to Eta. This bike is a bit smaler and should have even better aerodynamics.

New Fairing for Camera Bike

Hans just finished a new fairing for the our next bike. It will have a camera system therefore we need no window in the front. Beside this there are also bigger wheels in the bike. It is obvious that 26 inch wheels is the maximum size, which fits in. Once the faring is ready we will compare the “window bike” with the “camera bike” […]
