Im doing physics a level too! :)

future tester?

The external measurements matched, the material was different. That's like saying you precisely replicated 531 frame in aluminium and then found that it was a noodle (as indeed, Vitus did with their first generation aluminium frames)

Same material, like I said, exactly the same. Maybe you had trouble understanding.

Physics to A level, engineering for the love of it.

The equation gives the eventual speed of a rocket in space (no gravity, no aerodynamics) for a given initial speed, structure mass, fuel mass and exhaust velocity. It is a form of the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation. As such, I use it as punctuation when I use the expression "it's not rocket science"

When dealing with fools, I like quoting: 6.626068 × 10-34 m2 kg / s

Two things both made from crabon fribé are unlikely to be the same material when one is a copy based on a finished example of the other. Did they carefully dismantle the 'dale and measure everything; the number of plies, their orientation, whether UD or woven, the fibre grade, the matrix resin properties and compaction? In round figures, it's possible to make two carbon fibre frames with the same external dimensions and the same weight and have one of them be twice as stiff as the other.

All the above based on the assumption that you were talking about the carbon Flash, not the alloy one, since you didn't bother to specify which you meant in your original post.

I should send you some A level papers from my day, they would scare the shit out of you. Anybody who thinks exams haven't been seriously dumbed down over time can go back to old papers and have their delusion shattered. 'Twas ever thus, by the way; I've seen School Certificate (taken at age 16) papers from my parents' time and they were as tough as my A levels.

1918 Bike, Winter Bicycles, Oregon.

ace.

What is the point of two top tubes?

Sorry to "shatter your delusion", but I regularly do A level papers from the mid-70s as practice.

Is it hard work always trying to be right? Assuming that everything you have done is either harder or better than anything anyone else have ever achieved? Yeah sure you think you exam was harder because you did it and you're so awesome right? I think is is Carbon Fibre not Crabon Fribe as long as we are correcting people.

You missed the acute accent in fribé.

Also, your first 'is' should probably have been 'it' :-)

My awesomeness actually made the exam much easier for me.

you just can't stop, can you? because MT will not stop for sure

Where have you been?

^Here, nothing I'd say.
In 1918 just added stability....?

Rep'd Tester just for the laughs! ;P

Come on people, lighten up.

I think the AS papers I did would scare the shit out of you. Less maths and Physics, more writing and explaining in words why something happened. Not what I signed up for....

Eh, why's that?

Because I didn't!
Dropped Physics now though. Maybe that's where I went wrong
