Triathlon Aero Cockpit CAD

I have a working concept for a modular aero cockpit that must outperform existing clip-on extensions in both aerodynamics and, above all, high adjustability. The system combines carbon-fiber laminate plates with PA12 / carbon-reinforced nylon parts produced on an HP MJF printer, so every joint, clamp and transition has to be engineered for a hybrid lay-up and printed construction.

What I will hand over: rough sketches, dimensions taken from a Canyon Speedmax, and the target adjustment ranges for stack, reach and pad angle. Your task is to turn these notes into a clean parametric 3D model in Fusion 360 or SolidWorks, keep it organised for fast edits, and export STEP files that a carbon shop and a service-bureau printer can use without re-work.

Because the first prototype will be raced, every part must pass a common-sense DFM check for both autoclaved carbon and SLS/MJF nylon: wall thickness, fastening inserts, bonding surfaces and torque specs all need to be called out. I expect quick iteration—normally overnight—after I test-fit prints on the bike.

Essential experience (non-negotiable):
• Proven work with carbon fiber and 3D-printed engineering polymers
• Hands-on creation of ride-ready prototypes, not just concept renders

Please respond with a detailed project proposal outlining your modelling workflow, revision turnaround, and how you will validate strength and fit before we commit to tooling. If your approach aligns, we will move straight into the first milestone: modelling the base bar clamps and extension risers.
