Design Solution:

The design solution generated from this project was focused around the frame of a high performance jump bike. The frame for a high performance jump bike is the most important component of the design. Without a strong, rigid frame the bike would simply crumble on landing a jump, therefore causing serious harm to riders. 

The design solution generated shows a frame moulded from carbon fibre giving it it's unique aesthetics along with providing the high performance strength characteristics needed from the frame. The concept incorporates a built in small seat along with a unique 1 rear fork design with moulded in rear axel This allows for the wheel to be taken on and off with ease when maintaining/servicing the bike. The whole frame is designed around a series of triangles giving the structure rigidity whilst gaining a different aesthetic appearance to that of standard frames. The high cost of carbon fibre can be justified as high performance bikes cost in excess of ~£5000 (shown from market research).
