MANUFACTURING still providing exceptional strength and reliability . “ We ’ re also working with delivering full carbon fibre frames , giving our customers multiple options . One very interesting thing we found through our research is that we ’ re able to use a non-petroleum based resin for the carbon fibre elements , so it ’ s essentially a biocarbon made from a byproduct of paper processing . This equates to no hydrocarbons and a significantly lower greenhouse footprint ,” said Andrew . This is still a relatively young process for the company , but they are looking to continue developing it , possibly positioning it as ‘ green ’ carbon fibre which is quite unique within the industry .
Furthermore , Flying Machine has engaged with a fundraising outfit , the Australian Small Scale Offerings Board ( ASSOB ) to do a capital raising with funds to be used for setting up a new facility and tale on additional staff . This investment would help create much needed work space and aid in helping the company keep up with their growing orders and customer base .
As it is , there aren ’ t many other custom bike manufacturers in Australia . On top of this , Flying Machine continues to distinguish itself with its dedication to research and development , continuous innovation and impassioned spirit for providing the perfect riding experience for every lifestyle .
