[python] Re: Suspension

Go to Alta Vista Bablefish they have a Russian-english translator  also most
of those are standard headset and bar bikes, no problem with that really.  I
plan to make my FunCyccle into one like that myself.  I want to try out the
stability of such a setup before I build another python trike.

Siwmae Jurgen a bawb!

I have some questions about your post, excerpted above:

1) Can anyone translate the Russian text into
English? I'd love to read the commentary.

2) With the axis of articulation between the
front and rear parts of the Russian trikes so far
ahead of the hips of the riders, and with
positive trail (it seems) has anyone any idea of
the PSI effect, if any? Or will Jurgen Maier's
A>B or A=B rule apply here to prevent PSI?

3) Any pictures of your Python Delta, Jurgen?

And whilst I'm asking for information, can I get
more inf/pix about the Python PX5 from anywhere.
Do I understand the picture right in the
'Modification and Ideas' section: Is the rider
really sitting on the front half of the bike,
like with the Kalle recumbent? And how does it
ride?

As I'm sure many other home-builders must have
realised before me, in order to try out all the
things I want to with a special recumbent, I
think I shall have to build several, for
different purposes. I'm getting tooled up for
that right now. My real priority, though, is an
all-year alleweder worker, which can carry a
reasonable freight load besides me, and operate
in the rainy, mountainous land of Gwynedd, in
Cymru, so that I can become personally car-free,
and only have to use motor vehicles just
occasionally. Incidentally, I don't mind about
slow cornering and pot-holes.
