Ready to cut steel (and aluminium) hopefully!
Ok this is the 'final' design - ready to go to the builders. The forks have been pared down to 3.6kg for the pair. They are 6061 – T6 alloy. FEA has been done assuming a 1 G stoppy with a 300kg all up weight all on the front wheel.
With the cross pieces added as well as fixings the weight jumps to 5.3kg. As I don’t have a weight for the wheel, I can’t give a total steered mass for comparison with the standard T-max.
Here are a few different views of the whole assembly mated to a mocked up frame.
Here is some detail on the forks.
