Hace algunos meses se puso en contacto conmigo una persona con un proyecto muy ambicioso entre manos. Su idea era transformar una Triumph Tiger 1050 en la moto de sus sueños. Algunos se conforman con cambiar las estriberas, los retrovisores o la cúpula de su moto pero no Marcelo. Cuando me escribió ya había instalado el basculante monobrazo, la llanta …
Two months ago I mentioned I was working on the design of an electric maxi scooter for the company MKLT and here I bring you the final result. It has been a project where I have had a lot of freedom and it is something I appreciate. This time I have been commissioned to do the most creative part of …
This Christmas Santa Claus has brought me a wonderful gift… The Cintiq 13HD digital drawing tablet!!! I’ve used it only for two days but I can already say it’s a fantastic product. Before this Wacom I had an Intuos but the differences are huge. With the Intuos you draw on the tablet while the image is shown on your pc …
El viernes de la semana pasada asistí como ponente al PechaKucha Vol.9 que se realizó en Santa Cruz de Tenerife para presentar el proyecto de la DCH (y la Elipse). Por si alguno no sabe en qué consiste, el PechaKucha es un evento para que creativos de todo el mundo compartan sus ideas, trabajos, pensamientos o lo que crean oportuno …
Now that I’ve shown the final CAD drawings of the electric bike I want also to show you some of the first sketches I did. I started this project (and all the projects I do however complex they may be) with paper and pen, creating freehand drawings. From my point of view it is the best and fastest way to …
Finally we can see the whole DCH1’s design! As you can see I haven’t used any plastic part or fairing that covers or hides the bike. The entire chassis is exposed and absolutely all parts are functional, like on a bicycle. With this bike I focused mainly in that it was «easily» manufacturable and practical. About the aesthetics, it has …
One more thing that I cross out from the list “things to do”! The battery box is already welded, painted and with all accessories installed on the door. Let’s see what these accessories are about: -The box has two LEDs on the door, one green and one red which indicate the status of the controller (on, off, over-voltage, high temperature, …
I’ve finally welded the aluminum swingarm and the batteries box! It has been a long journey… As I was expecting, they were much more difficult to weld than the steel parts. The biggest headache was to weld the joints between the aluminum extrusions and the machined parts. Because the thicknesses were so different, machined parts (like the shock absorber lug) …
Checking and organizing old files I found this sketch* I had done some time ago for the Vitabana´s project. This is a project that was canceled more than a year ago and it was a shame because it was quite advanced. But there is no time money for everything… Let’s see if I can take it up again in the …
