| Frame/Structures: The seat mounts and major drivetrain mounts are finished. A rollbar still needs to be made. The only other frame parts left are small tabs that will be used to mount the fairing and drivetrain guides. Fairing: No parts were made for the fairing this week. More planning has been done and new fiberglass has been ordered. The new fiberglass is significantly lighter and better suited for fairing use than the fiberglass used last year. Also, Coroplast sheets have been ordered. A combination of Coroplast and fiberglass will most likely be used to construct the fairing. Drive Train: The central hub is mounted. Chains have been run from both the front and rear cranks to the central hub. Guide wheels were made and attached to the frame. Several more guides and the derailleurs need to be completed. Controls: The steering is finished! The steering was modified to decrease the turning radius, and then the handlebars were built up to the rider. |
