[python] Re: Front hub cranks

This article in the Michigan HPV newesletter may be of interest to python
builders . It is a description of a FWD bike with the cranks turning on the
same axle as the front wheel hub. This might help shorter riders use a
large front wheel, as has been discussed on this list some time ago.

Thanks Mike,

helpful article for big-wheel lovers with shorter legs.

Robert W from Victoria, Australia has build his python
in a similar way (see attached pictures).

BTW. Recently I wondered about the lifetime of rod-ends
in a python.
As you were the first to use them: Any play yet? How much
km would you estimate their lifetime?

Best regards,
Jürgen.
