Device Purpose and Latest Parts
Alongside the mathematical model, the team wanted to create a device that would be able to adjust all suspension settings while moving on the trail. After going through an expedited design process, the design team decided to go for a purely mechanical design using shifter cables as opposed to an electrical design using and Arduino and stepper motors. After some quick 3D modeling, the team came up with some pieces that could mount to the bike and aid in switching the different bike settings from the cockpit of the bike. The final design includes a switcher that the rider can use to adjust through the different suspension settings. The switcher uses cables under tension to pull the rebound and compression knobs to the correct settings.
