On the concept presentation, we had the following feedback:
1. Monofork will skip away/be forced too much when turning
2. Folding point in the middle (under the seat) will be handling high forces when influenced by forces sideways.
With this feedback in mind, we adapted our concept:
1. By adapting the form of the frame in the front, from convex to convave, the double-sided fork has the space to turn instead of bouncing against the frame.
We also copy the same change in the second frame half, so the overlapping form is the same when folded.
2. To make a the connection in the middle firmer, we bend the both frame halves a little (the thickness of the wheel), so the middle connection is aligned and can be made better resistant against sideway forces.
From now on, we will work with a simple hinge, as used on doors, to make this a firm connection.
