[python] Henk van Eerden Trike

Henk -

I am quite interested in your design and have a few questions?
I've purchased BHP http://www.fleettrikes.com/python%20clone.htm from
25hz and want to experiment a little this winter (it was -40 with
windchill last week, here).

1) At what angle are the rear wheels from vertical?
2) Did you toe-in the rear wheels? If so how much?

Hi,

as requested hereby the pictures.

dimensions
length = 165 cm
wheelbase = 105 cm
width = 65 cm
pivot angle = 68 degrees
frontwheel= 20 inch
rearwheels = 24 inch (wheelchair)
turningcircle = 450 cm
ground clearance = 12 cm
main tube = 35x35x1,5
fronttubing = 30x10x1,5
gearing = Nexus 7 speed

nothing fancy, just a trike rear-end clamped to a bike rear-end. Used a
diabolo (rubber damper) for stability (works fine) on both the bike and
trike. Only need some fenders in this wet, windy weather (it's Fall in
Holland!)

still like the trike over the bike (i always have been a kind of lazy
one, just the effort needed. Gues that;s why i like recumbents so
much.).

any questions? just asked and i will try to answer them to my best
knowledge.

regards,

henk.
