Front Wheels


The front shaft is a pipe that is welded to the front rib. The front rib is fastened to the skin using glass bubble. To make this bond stronger a strip of glass fibre was put over the bracket.
At the end of the front shaft there are axles slotted into the pipe.

The wheels are slotted on the axles and then tighten by the a bolt. The wheel hubs have two bearings inside which fit on the axle.

The brake calliper brackets are aligned and welded onto the shaft, then the calliper is bolted to that bracket. The brake disc is already mounted to the hub of the wheel.
