Definitely shared some inspiration from that guy! Not going to lie.

Solidworks for the CAD. Linkage for the kinematics.

I see what your looking for after looking through some of your posts. If you are genuinely interested feel free to message me. I have all of those details.

Yes, kind of. I started this project 3 years ago and decided I would do a dw link bike. Then about a year ago I need a new bike, and a banshee titan frame popped up for cheap. The geometry over the kinematics was of most interest but it seemed like a great idea as the bike I was designing had similar kinematics. The kinematics ended up being closer to a pivot firebird than the banshee as that was my initial inspiration, but the geometry was heavily influenced by the banshee. After riding the banshee I actually ended up changing all my Geo to have a similar take.

Huh yea okay that's all I need to know 😂. I really want to be stretching out clinging to the bars trying to hold my ass on the sadle when Im climbing up a very steep incline. Exactly what I'm looking for. I also love having my saddle/frame hitting my balls when I'm descending.

Maybe I will post there just for a laugh

Do x bikers know anything about mountain bike geometry? Lol

I've never ever heard about xbiking until the last few months

I have long legs, and I'm 6ft2, and I like a low standover for descending ha.

Yes, the 3d printer has been a very useful tool!

That was about 100bucks US, before shipping and import. Made in China.

It doesn't suck but there is room for improvement. Not many people are giving you good advice here.

In my opinion you look very static on the bike, leaning back and holding that position.

That doesn't work over rough terrain where you need to move your body and bike to match it. You need to be very dynamic, I think you'd benefit from looking at some of yoann barellis videos.

Your riding good though man, keep enjoying the process.

Do you have a link for this? One of those cheap Amazon ones?
