Scope
The TUM Bike project aims to develop and build a functional bicycle that serves as both an exhibit and a method carrier for research at the Laboratory of Product Development and Lightweight Design (LPL). The focus of the core development is on the bicycle frame, emphasizing stiffness, lightweight design, and user comfort. The goal is to develop a modular frame that allows various methodologies developed at the lab to be applied and demonstrated. The modularity also enables individual components to be replaced and further developed over time, ensuring the method carrier remains relevant and can be used as a continuous practical example in teaching.
