Beginning of the final build. Designed by the team from the previous semester, this was my first semester on the project. My role was design consultation and component spec. (The hideous roll-bar is part of the contest rules.)

You need a bar like that on your road bike...maybe all of your bikes!

Does it have to come in at a certain weight?

I'll give YOU a bar! ...whatever that means. Besides, you're the one who has more fequent altercations with gravity. And no, there are no weight restrictions. That frame was only a few pounds, though. 0.5 mm ti on the main frame - it's insanely light.

arent you going to be leaning really far forward(like touching your toes) just to brake?
