Episode #012 - How crash protection is made w/ AltRider CEO Jeremy Lebreton

Whenever you sit down with a real engineer, I find you quickly realise just how little you know. This stands for most professions but in some areas these things stand out as a little more obvious but what catches me off guard about motorcycles is that quite often simple parts take a substantial amount of thought.

To some degree, adventure bike protection is quite simple. You can make rudimental parts of out bent pipe and stick them together. However, the bigger your company gets, the more complex the process of both design and manufacturing gets. For me this has always been a fascinating conversation. A few years back I did an interview with part of the Ducati design team and this follows on from that. It's all about asking why and how!
