[python] Re: Moving the Pivot point behind the seat?

Hello goatbits,

I was suprised to find the python design and it being freely published. I like the design except for one thing. It pivots before the seat. That will prevent a constent leg to peddal alligment during turning.

I have done some searching and have found one other design with the pivot behind the seat. (banana Peal)

I was wondering why there were not more designs with this type of steering. The production bike is said to be stable enough. 

I do not know any successful rear wheel steered bikes besides the
Kalle.

Erik Wannee has made an informative site about RWS bikes:

Our friend Mr. Nobuo has build a Kalle but I don't know how
it rides.

Any info about the "banana peal"? I only know the banana trike
which is RWS but a trike. And RWS trikes there are a lot.

Cheers,
Jürgen.
