Camelbike, with regular front suspension, the front part, frame attachement
putting the drive part in place. in the background my other camelbike.
in my first camel, i used the saddle pin and tube to make a rigid construction,
connecting it to the stearing tube.
this is not possible in my new project, because i have front suspension.
thats why i had to cut the tube for the saddlepin, to attach this later to the lower part of the front fork.
attaching the derailleur at the right angle.
the front drive part is tilted from the ground, so the derailleur should follow that angle.
after deciding te correct angle, i had to drill a hole in the drive part and frontfork,
because the derailleur was of an other model than the drive part.
the front chain guide fits nicely.
temporarily hold the front drive in place with a wire..
Lucio told me, in one of his bikes, there was a lot of flexing of the frame frame,
in the front part when pedaling, loosing energy on that.
if i understand the problem correctly, i will try to counter act this flexing,
by placing 2 rods at an angle.
these forces and angles are not calculated, it is just to try out if it works.
Household material will do nicely, a steel profile used for bookshelves.
an other exhaust clamp fits in snugly..
first drill some holes, then use the angle grinder and file to make the desired shape.
fit it in place.
in the end, we will have 2 threaded rods either side,
