28 days! Man that is fast. That is how long Trek’s Advanced Concept Group took to redesign and produce a new TTX time trial frame for Lance Armstrong to ride in the 2005 Tour. An article in Design News, an engineering trade magazine, explains how the design team used their software tools to pull off this amazing feat. My guess is that the guys at Trek spent more than a few late nights at the office this past May. The final product looks great and, of course, Lance won the tour, so I guess all the hard work paid off. Check out the article here.
