Message: >I am a mechanical engineer major hoping to get into downhill/FR frame design after college, and I have to do a report on what goes into building a frame like that, such as where the frame would be reinforced, welding techniques, geometry, materials, etc. I have a good general knowledge but would like some more insight. Any responses or websites to find that info would be great. Sounds like a fun area to work in. A friend of mine Lance Canfiel is also a mechanical engineer that builds and rides his own dh/fr frames and also designs forks for White brothers. Check out his sight www.canfieldbrothers.com and e-mail him with questions he's is very cool inteligent guy.
