"The capital city of Queensland - Brisbane - is a hotbed of Australian framebuilding. A long chapter of Australia's cycling history stems from the city's sub-tropical climes, and there's a new generation intent on keeping the flame burning, like Brad Marshall.
Brad is an industrial designer whose work we've already seen on Cycle EXIF: his 'Loose Goose' funny bike caused a stir here nearly two years ago. He's since followed his job to New York, where he's been living for a year, but here's something he prepared beforehand.
This one is called ONPOINT PT1001; signifying, hopefully, the first of many."

The PT1 was born out of an addiction to tinkering on bike frames, spending endless hours with a torch, mouse (CAD), saw, welder or spray gun in hand. Starting from the drawing board, the PT1 was a logical progression that allowed me to control almost every detail.
I created a parametric CAD model that could be driven by a design table, aggregating a rider’s anthropometric data, and adjusted to yield specific handling characteristics. Integrating butt dimensions allowed me to tune the balance of weight and strength for each individual tube and joint.
This design approach also allowed for custom frame hardware which matched the exacting frame geometry. The PT1 features laser cut track ends and faces, laser cut + etched name plate, and a CNC machined internally binding seat mast topper; all of which were manufactured using outputs from the CAD model.
