Abstract

Finite element analysis was performed for a split-type CFRP bicycle frame, which was designed to apply a compression molding process with carbon fiber prepreg for a conventional bicycle. An epoxy adhesive material for joining the frames was selected by the extent of stress at joint interfaces. The split-type bicycle frame was then formed and its weak parts examined by the boundary conditions according to reliability tests. The results verified the reliability of the bicycle frame after modification of these weak parts. The finished product was manufactured by using this developed split-type bicycle frame.
