A well-known example is the road bike, which gives the rider better performance the lighter the bike becomes. Other applications are often less well known, such as in the skating world where carbon parts are added to skates.<\/p>\n
Development institute Fraunhofer-ICT put the question to Prince Fibre to jointly develop a seat post for sports bikes.<\/p>\n
The carbon fiber seat post has been given a different profile shape. This has become a more oval shape with an almost flat side. Two profiles are used for the seat post, which are inserted into the frame with the flat sides facing each other.<\/p>\n
Ideas for a new design are currently in the works. The goal is to further increase stiffness, further improving static bending.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Developing innovative designs together” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Prince Fibre’s fiberglass and carbon products can be used very widely. This collaboration with Fraunhofer is an excellent example of that.<\/p>\n
Are you also curious about the possibilities that carbon or fiberglass can offer you? Prince Fibre is happy to advise you and help you think of unique applications for a custom developed product.
