Design and Optimisation of Composite Triathlon Bicycle with Kú Cycles

by Dr Steffan Evans

Design and Optimisation of Composite Triathlon Bicycle with Kú Cycles

We’ve recently been involved with Kú Cycles working on a super-contemporary triathlon bike, which melds beautiful aesthetics with engineered technical performance. The concept is based around a novel bar/fork arrangement, which allows an aerodynamic rider position that surpasses other designs in its class.

We used detailed FEA to develop and optimise the composite structure to allow confidence in the design response before expensive tooling was required. This was performed in concert with CFD analysis, through TotalSim, and followed up with full physical testing at Gigantex.

More information on our technical input can be seen here.

The Kú Cycles press release can be seen below.
