用態度堅持生活…帶著你的「BROMPTON」進來吧!!

最近有上Brompton UK website的朋友或許有注意到在右上角上寫著:
We're working on something special, It doesn't have a name yet but it promises to BIG 哇, 一個尚未命名的大計劃

今天我收到Brompton寄來到的mail, 仍然吊人胃口, 只知道叫做 Project X和帥哥設計師 Will

Hi,

Thanks for signing up for our special updates. Over the coming year there are some exciting new developments planned at Brompton HQ and we would like to involve you in one in particular.

Without wishing to go too James Bond, let’s call it ‘Project X’. As you have expressed an interest in this, we plan on giving monthly updates on progress and sneak previews of Project X up until the launch.

In this initial communication, rather than giving information about the product, we would first like to introduce you to the man behind it.



This is Will, he is head of design at Brompton Bicycle. Having joined the company seven years ago he has been involved in a number of key changes, including, but not limited to: the development and introduction of the Superlight package, two handlebar types (S and P) and improvement and expansion of the front luggage range.

Will oversees a team of four designers who, along with Andrew Ritchie, work together to implement improvements to the Brompton. This covers many areas including reducing the weight of the bike and components, increasing the longevity of the product and improving the performance of the bike.

Normally one to speak his mind on a variety of subjects, Will is always very coy about new developments. All he has to say on Project X for now is:

“Progress is going well, we are still in the development stage but each prototype continues to get better and better. What I’m most looking forward to is getting out of the workshop and doing some real world testing in the coming months”.

As soon as Will feels we are in a position to announce more, you will be the first to know.


Kind regards,

An excited Brompton team

有人知道任何內幕消息嗎??????

我只是剛加入小布不久,不要這麼快就來個大改動吧~~~
我猜
會不會是終於要發表轉把變速
以前聽Ben講很多次2011年要發表這算是蠻大的改變吧

小布要改款了嗎=_=

ippo大大 不要擔心啦
《一台騎很遠 小布夠經典 台台永流傳》

不知道 BROMPTON 要改怎樣.......
但……非常希望 期待出台《全鈦版》

創造出輕量級、精緻品、經典款的實用車

現在的鈦版要 $15000 港元,要是用上全鈦車架的話恐怕要 $25000~~~

^^||| 呵呵呵…………應該很難會出 全鈦版
因為 鈦的材質特性 以下截錄 片段的資料
源自 http://www.lunghsi.org/fun/viewthread.php?tid=129 轉貼

》》》鈦在一般的環境下幾乎不會被腐蝕。
但是它有另一種腐蝕現象即異種金屬腐蝕。b>例如,不同種類的合金接合在一起時,成為電極狀態,電位差使局部通電引起腐蝕。
對此現象採取的措施是用脂膏等來絕緣(混有金屬粉末的脂膏,如商品名:Ti Plepu等)。
這種金屬粉末防止脂膏流失,即使流失後也用來防止緊密接觸。
這種金屬粉末有導電性也不要緊,接觸後被較小的荷重破壞掉。
這種現象稱為「粘住」,它和「烘焙」是不同的。
「粘住、咬合」:金屬之間通過腐蝕來接合的現象。
「烘焙接合」:加工金屬時所產生的熱量來溶融接合。

●鈦合金車架的缺點
價格高。
鈦在自然界以二氧化鈦的形態存在,提練及加工過程複雜,技術要求高,並花時間因此成本高。
再有溶接加工極為困難,因為鈦和氧的親和力極強,和空氣接觸後馬上變成二氧化鈦,而二氧化鈦硬而脆,該部分的強度會不斷下降。因此用惰性氣體小心焊接。
通常所說的Tig焊接是:(Tig:鎢、惰性氣體的略語)用鎢電極及氬氣體進行弧焊接。鈦的焊接必需隔絕空氣下進行。
由於以上原因鈦車架價格很貴。


所以 鈦 局部的運用在摺疊車上 是OK
全鈦 應該很難吧

難怪BTC比賽妳會上頒獎台

之前聽Ben 說過好像龍頭那根直直的鐵管子(不知道叫甚麼?) 有可能改成鈦
