did you by any chance use part a v10 the front looks similar but without the hump

i really like it though

giantgl0ryh0le (Mar 29, 2009 at 9:49)

no i actually started looking at a RM switch and the turbosmooth modifier in the program gave it the roundness in the frame there, b4 it looked realy futuristic and hard lines nothing round, but this is basically all striat outta my brain, the switch was only inspiration because i like the motocross style swingarm

bikerboibrett (Mar 29, 2009 at 10:43)

i see that sweet though looks like a sick design!!

theminsta (Mar 30, 2009 at 17:28)

Single pivot, and a long swingarm connected together by 1 link...

Really like the design, but there's too much stress on that single pivot.

giantgl0ryh0le (Mar 31, 2009 at 4:20)

thats why its really beefy

giantgl0ryh0le (Mar 31, 2009 at 4:59)

just remembered, go look at a 2004 specialized bighit sport comp single swingarm, single pivot no worries ever on that thing

it worked on the rocky mountain rmx9, this looks like it'll work too.

theminsta (Aug 24, 2009 at 15:24)

Yeah I know, but the rear chainstay and the pivot looks extremely tiny... You have to have more than 3inch-diameter bearings for this frame! lol

theminsta (Aug 24, 2009 at 18:29)

If you have forgotten, the RMX had few incidents where the frame was fatigued and later, the frame snapped. Snappage occurred on the chainstay, and also in your FACE
lol

no offense, but I just had to say it!

funkedafro (Aug 24, 2009 at 18:47)

well the rmx was in production for a long time so that frame design had to have something going for it for them to keep making them, and it's a much nicer looking bike than the flatline. wasn't aware of the problems with it, just it's in all the red bull rampages so that must mean they were making them, or something very similar for like 8-9 years.

oh, aren't you a clever boy for your comeback. My point in the first place is that thia guy has put a lot of work into the green bike and i think it's great if it gets made.

theminsta (Aug 24, 2009 at 20:28)

You are completely misunderstanding me. Sorry if you aren't the type of guy that makes random jokes up, I'll take the "in your face" thing back. I'm not making fun of, or saying that this frame design is not competent or anything.

I am just saying that the chainstay looks dangerously thin, and that you'd need a bigger bearing to make up for all the pressure that goes onto the rear wheel.

Internet fights are meaningless, and I never intended to start it.

funkedafro (Aug 25, 2009 at 4:48)

sorry

the piggy back on the shock will hit the frame when its compressed by the looks of things

giantgl0ryh0le (Apr 1, 2009 at 14:54)

by the looks of things you're incorrect because i have that model rigged with animated linkage and it all clears

danny-oli (Apr 1, 2009 at 14:59)

ah oki thn Smile

, its problies just the angle, do you have a picture of it when its compressed ? Smile

giantgl0ryh0le (Apr 1, 2009 at 15:01)

i'll try and get one, also if all else fails i can just spin the shock 180 right

danny-oli (Apr 1, 2009 at 15:16)

, it might look better with the shock rotated actually, it wont make the pivot seem so bulky and over crowded.
whenn what ever you do its a sweet design pal Big Grin

giantgl0ryh0le (Apr 1, 2009 at 16:42)

thanks bro

giantgl0ryh0le (Apr 4, 2009 at 7:33)

danny-oli (Apr 4, 2009 at 16:44)

nice one, ill have a look Smile

Nice!! That's a master piece! I too have made a bike for my school assignment on 3d studio max, got a A+ Smile

giantgl0ryh0le (Apr 5, 2009 at 7:42)

it's a great program eh, i like to run them through their preliminary tests in it before i even touch any metal
