Zordon Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 I remember that it was done with Echo Hifi but it was probably headtube only. They made a comparison with the xtp headtube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 And that was one that Echo had done, so it wasn't 100% accurate... I think Tart or someone had the FEA (Finite Element Analysis or something?) diagrams from a frame or few? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira_Shock! Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Since the Echo Hifi headtube was compared to the XTP headtube, and they kinda said that the Echo headtube was stronger... does this also kinda mean that Deng is kinda also saying that his own Czar headtubes are weaker than his Echo Hifi/Team headtubes? Unless the Czar headtubes are drastically different to the XTP headtubes for some odd reason, even though they look the same?mmm, speaking of XTPs, I might be getting a Koxx XTP... unicycle CNC'd frame soon, from my good friend Yoggi!

toxicturky Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 you could use ProEngineer to do that or Solidworks if you could steal it of uni lol, they're both solid modeling packages which do exactly the same thing. not that difficult to do and looks the shit!Mark.

Mr Motivator Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Solidworks = rip it out your harddrive and burn it We had a bad teacher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Solidworks rules, but the fea analysis is pretty much useless as bike's are welded, and you cannot really weld in solidworks.You could of course design a component, like a headtube, set it up with forces acting in their respective directions and strength's but again, the weld wouldn't be taken into consideration, and the material would be considered all one I think, steve from heatsink should be able to offer you more help as he's done a bit regarding the booster's and such......
