Beer mat drawings

At unladen rebound, and certainly if the damper is providing the stop of travel at rebound, isnt the joint under tension then? (an extreme example would be if you "get air" over a jump say)

Just saying (but I agree the weld is adequate anyways)

:D
 
We have also taken a closer look at the rear wheel clearances,
It was decided it would be a good idea to extend the cut out down the arm ,
This will allow us to build the wheels with a lot less offset ,if a 120 tyre is fitted to a 2.5 inch rim.we can get away with 5mm offset,
A standard 2.15 rim and a 4.00 x18 tyre won’t need any offset:thumb

Once the exhaust is finished the bike will come apart so the frame can be powder coated,
I’m hoping to show the bike at the Airhead gathering in Lincoln,where it will have a FOR SALE notice on it.
If this bike is of interest to you ,now would be a good time to contact me.:thumb
 
Today is a big day for this build,as the frame has been powder coated :clap
Super job from” Alloy engineers” in Nottingham.
Dropped off yesterday morning and delivered back today:bow
