I own Ride To The Hills on vhs and it is the only reason I still have a vcr.
Also, after reading many of these posts I would like to define the sort of issues I am looking for when considering designing a bike. More big picture stuff. Where is the future of mountain biking headed? Is there really a bike out there that is appropriate for trail riding one day and park riding the next? Are our bikes becoming too complicated and expensive for the average enthusiast? What type of alterations can be made to generic mountain bike design that will create more appeal and accessibility to the sport? Urban mountain biking sounds contradictory but it exists and seems like an untapped resource besides a couple dj bikes marketed as urban fr bikes. After questions like these are answered more questions concerning items at the component level can be answered. Everybody knows that there are antiquated systems in the mountain bike component family but without a solid foothold on where the sport is headed where is the motivation to create a radically different system to replace one that already works?
I am an industrial Design student at NJIT and I am looking forward to creating a solid design project for this comp. If any engineers in the area (north jersey) want to team up I believe we could present a real game changer, I am very good with CAD (certified in inventor) and I also have 2 years experience as an ME so I am not engineering illiterate.
