Hello Marcel,
I've been dithering over whether to make a tilting-trike, and if so
whether to go with the Bram Smit/Henry Thomas sort of tilt, or to go
for Paul Sims' solution (Greenspeed; here's a picture:
http://www.greenspeed.com.au/australia/paul/images/lean5.jpg )
In the end, I'll probably just put together a quick, simple,
non-tilting trike back end, to be able to ride distances and carry
freight as soon as possible, and then go back to practising with the
bike rig, when I have an odd hour to spare, until it works for me.
Always thought that the bike is the way to go, for me. But I have to
be able to ride it, and so far -- every time I try I fall off within
30 metres max. Very frustrating.
Of course, I know that the tilting trikes act and feel just like
bikes when free to tilt, but like rigid trikes when the tilt-brake is
locked on, so in a sense a tilter can be ridden as either. But in the
end I suppose that the bike is the pure, minimum-weight, minimum-drag
original, and that's what I always wanted to go for.
Greetz, Rh.
Hi,
Maybe the solution of Bram's Tilting Trike will do?
You can go to his site: <http://www.fastfwd.nl/>www.fastfwd.nl It
has an English part .
Als trike builder Henri Thomas has a lot of information. He has used
the Python design for his Jetrike.
See <http://www.jetrike.com/index.html>http://www.jetrike.com/index.html
A lot of succes!
