This co-curricular course will engage students in the process of designing and fabricating a custom bicycle frame. Students will learn about the array of anatomical and performance factors that designers must consider; use a frame design CAD program to analyze their design and create working drawings; and learn all the required fabrication methods for building welded steel frames. Those students wishing to build their own frame should expect to spend a significant amount of time in the shop outside of class.

Lab Fee: $60
