The Mountain bike is an industrial artform, and has very diverse influences from motorcycles and aeronautics to metallurgy and sculpture. There appears to be no limit to the speed or type of terrain that mountain bikers strive for, and each successive evolution is achieved in the most part by advances in technology. With time emerging manufacturing capabilities will bring many new design concepts within the financial reach of the average consumer.
Through the 1980s and 90s the sport benefited from the excess production capacity of the very large Japanese bike industry and cheap Taiwanese labour. The exploding market of the mountain bike gave the Japanese suppliers an opportunity to innovate, which gave them the edge over European builders that dominated the bike market for decades. At the same time the West Coast aerospace industry in America was declining which left hundreds of engineers with plenty of time on their hands and many began seeking work in the bike industry which could take advantage of their skills in materials and machinery. This new wave of entrepreneurship led to better and cheaper components and concepts.
As the sport of mountain biking grew, more start-up capital became available, and people found new ways to make a living doing the thing that they loved, as a result mountain bikes became lighter, gained front and rear suspensions, and acquired more gears.
The state-of-the-art today is one of continued innovation, increased consolidation and commercialisation. There have been sweeping technological changes that were designed to sell more and more products, and a cheaper price. However, off-road biking remains one of the purest and most accessible expressions of cycling technology available to consumers.
I hope this brief article has helped you to learn little bit more about the history of the mountain bike and the direction it is headed. If you would like to learn even more then you can visit my web site where I write about my favourite bike the Rocky Mountain Vertex 30, check it out here http://www.squidoo.com/RockyMountainVertex30.
Caparo T1 Update
The Caparo T1 was caught undergoing a full-bore shakedown at Snetterton circuit ahead of first customer deliveries due at the end of summer.
The radical lightweight Caparo has ditched its supercharged 2.4-litre V8 engine in favour of a highly-strung naturally aspirated all-alloy V8 unit capable of developing up to 700bhp at a wailing 10,200rpm. That’s 200bhp per litre.
Caparo operations director, wasn’t joking when he said the T1 would be an F1 car for the road. The road-legal T1 will pack enough punch to make a Ferrari Enzo feel like a Prius. And the project gained a boost this year with the announcement that Gordon Murray, the engineering genius behind the McLaren F1, has joined the T1’s development team.
Extensive use of aerospace-specification aluminium honeycomb and carbonfibre for most of the T1’s chassis and two-seater cabin compartment means it will weigh less than 500kg, promising a barely believable power-to-weight ratio 1400bhp per tonne. The Bugatti Veyron, by comparison, manages a mere 506bhp per tonne. Caparo claims the T1 could have been made even lighter but there were fears further weight cuts would compromise the car’s ability to meet impact regulations.
Like an F1 car, it drives the rear wheels through a close ratio sequential six-speed box, made from magnesium and carbonfibre. Expect the T1 to scorch to 60mph in 2.5seconds, 100mph in 5.0seconds and top out at 200mph. Even more startling are the T1’s braking times. With massive 355mm steel disc brakes at each wheel, it will bullet to 100mph and then brake to standstill in 8.5seconds.
The Caparo’s wind-cheating shape – complete with sliding jet-fighter canopy – has been painstakingly wind-tunnel honed. With a ground effects diffuser as well as adjustable front and rear wings that suck it to the ground, the T1 can generate up to 3g of cornering force, almost three times that of hardcore road cars like the Porsche 911 GT3 RS.
Caparo plans to peg annual production around the 25 mark, with prices starting at £185,000 excluding taxes - that’s around £217,500 for what will undoubtedly be the most fiercesome car on the road. If you want to the see the T1 in action, grab some tickets to this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the T1 will racing up the hill all weekend.[Source 4wheelsblog.com ]
