My computer had issues this week but it looks like I got things sorted out so I can continue documenting the shop and building progress. I am in the thick of a 12 frame aluminum batch, mostly pre-season CX race frames - some of them for team members . This one is a WCCX frame for a bay area racer who is not on the team.
This one is for a 6' rider and weighs 3 lbs. 6 oz. , about 1 lb. less than a light steel version of the same thing. The aluminum is quite a bit stiffer for all the accelerations needed out of every corner of a typical CX course. The thicker tube walls are harder to dent as well.
