I am thinking of lowering the BB, to make learning easier. Since I have not yet welded the top brace on the triangle, it should be easy to heat and bend.
Plus the x-seam seems a bit short for me now, so it will help there also.

Great, killing two birds with one stone.

I am wondering about the pivot angle? I was under the impression that the easier steering afforded by making the angle higher would help learning.
(I am at 70 degrees now) Would you suggest changing the angle towards 60 degrees? This would give more self-centering effect.

If you can change the angle you better should. The snake is less nervous with lower angles. Try 65 degrees.

We have 6 inches (15 cm) of snow here. Who will be the first to video a two wheeled Python riding in the snow? :)

You have more snow than Jukka from Finland. Are you from Canada?

Jürgen (no snow at all).
