Hi Ghislain!

I have the trouble, that there is not much space left between the pivot and the front wheel. Sooner or later you will want to have fenders over the front wheel, and then the space where the pivot, the fender and the front breaks meet will really be crammed. Dunno a solution without increasing the trail though.

It looks like Dirk got it right the first time, when it took us twice
to reach the same result :  a more forgiving ridable python, at last
nearly  (: >) ! Future will tell.

I would never have guessed that the seat height had so much influence. When going from flevo->python I went down 7cms and I didn't really notice much. Before 25hz wrote about his experiences, I thought seat height is better lower then higher. Now, ok i understand that it takes longer time to fall coming from up high, and thus more time to correct it.

Just as an info, I overlayed Ghislains picture once with a picture of my bike, as a comparisation.
