#7 Dave Weagle & Jens Staudt on MTB design, kinematics, pros and cons on linkage – Part 2 of 2
This is a guest episode from www.TESTPILOT.bike
In one packed hour Dave and Jens will try to explain, again, the complexity in bike design. We shed light on the advancing of bike technology and how we as humans are still the weakest part of it. How technology got better, how hard it can be to set it up. Influencing riding characteristic’s of a bike via kinematic design.
We will talk again about the program linkage, what it can and cannot do. Similarities between a good coffee machine and Suspension Setup
A 17-year-old Ironhorse Sunday Jens found on the used market. Daves ideas on shocks and dampers and how difficult mass production shock production is
How too much nerd talk about kinematics makes for bad sales numbers. The strength you need to have to really make a downhill bike work.
The rising topic of flex and a hot topic in world cup racing right now: Mass dampers.
CAUTION: This podcast may change your view on how you interpret numbers for kinematics and geometry of a bike. You may become a handful in after-ride-discussions with your buddies about which bike performs how and why. Welcome to the nerd side of bikes.
