Stanton Bikes- Titanium and Carbon MTB
Stanton Bikes are a bicycle company specialising in hand built, critically acclaimed steel and titanium mountain bikes. Their UK manufactured Switch full suspension range has gone on to sell large volumes globally and receive many accolades within the industry; with Enduro-mtbmagazine describing the bike as ‘an engineers dream, with tight tolerances and innovative features.’
We teamed up with Stanton Bikes and a UK carbon fibre company to take their proven Switch9er FS design to the next level with a lightweight titanium and CFRP variant. Using the existing geometry and suspension kinematics, we redesigned particular components and aspects of the frame to suit the titanium tubing profile and material properties. Efforts were made to keep all of the original features and dimensions of the design and suspension system to ensure that all assembly components were common and interchangeable with the existing steel and aluminium product.
Some of the key services and tools used within this project are detailed below:
- Reverse engineering
- Detailed design
- 3D CAD
- Material selection
- Photorealistic rendering
- Engineering drawings
