QUOTE(mousepad87 @ Nov 5 2009, 04:45 PM) i dont think the frame u post a great frame to resist torsion n bending. the frame it self convert force to torsion (angular frame member). my personal point of view is bow shape frame is gud for XC. and bigger tube between wheel and frame join should be bigger. one of highest stress point. I prefer frame made by corratec in general, a square tube resists bending the best, and a cylinder resists torsion the best. the helix combines both properties. i'm talking about the tubing shape, not the profile. bow shape=profile, not tube shape. and its common knowledge that bigger diameter=stiffer=better power transfer. basically downtube, and BB. if you see all the expensive bikes the down tube is big enough to swallow the BB itself. example  |
