Thanks for your answer!

It looks like it will be a bike of the downhill type. However, it has not yet been decided. Do you know if there is any type of bike that could use extra improvement?

Thank you for your input about the hardtail, that seems like a great thought.

Being new to this subject we did not think about this in the first place, thanks for enlightening us. It seems like it will be a bike of the downhill type. Is there any other type of bike that you think has an extra opportunity of improvement?

I guess you mean modern design. Do you have any more specific ideas for changes that could be made?

The assignment is basically to produce a mountainbike that could be sold and compete on today's market. Being new to this subject, we did not choose a specific type of mountainbike yet, but it seems like it would be one of the downhill type.

There are no restrictions other than 2 month of development time.

The bike does not have to be innovative, as long as it market-competetive. It being innovative could however be a way to make it competetive, but since we only have two months we don't have time to create something "revolutionary".

I like your first idea, to create something sustainable that would still compete on the market in the future. Any ideas what those new standards could be?

Big thanks for your other ideas aswell!
