Improved Bike Pendant, Keychain pendant

thingiverse

Originally designed in SketchUp in May 2012, this model has undergone numerous updates, including a version based on a German bike club's bike. The latest update occurred on May 15, 2016. Key features include curved front forks and shortened handlebars, with tire rims sporting 45-degree champfer. Both the original size and a 125% scaled version are available. All new files are named according to the update date. A SketchUp version has also been added recently. The advanced improved bike pendant boasts rounder hubs, wheels, and a thicker seat. Additionally, a balloon tire bike pendant is available, with round balloon tires added. However, it features an incorrect bike frame for the tires. Another version, the balloon tire bike pendent flat-sided, has its tires trimmed to allow printing in a flat position. A 200% version without supports and a 100% version with tree supports have been uploaded. Tree-like supports generated in Meshmixer's latest version work well. For organized bike rides, interlocked bike versions are available for rest stops. DesignSpark was used to create a version focused on rounding edges. All models can be scaled as needed. The advanced improved bike and balloon tire bike pendent flat can print without support in a flat position. However, the balloon tire version requires vertical or angled printing with support due to its wider tires than frame. Printing this model quickly without a raft is possible, although the seat may disappear without affecting functionality.
