I ride over poor surfaces but no the kind that would be smoothed out much
by having the whole rear end sprung.
I was hoping that by using the ' bike ' suspension for each rear wheel it
would reduce the individual load on the pivot components compare with both
wheels pivoted and sprung from one point ?
As I cannot ride a Python bike and only a trike I have not considered
leaning , or course leaning on it's own is not suspension it just reduces
the cornering forces and increases complexity and weight.

Hello Paul,
any special reason for separate suspension? I would expect that would
create outside lean when cornering? Unless you hace some lean steer
construction in mind?
I am thinking about suspention for my trike too. It can give you a nasty
shake, specaly in Winter when one wheel might have to run on gravel or ice.

Each wheel with a block of it's own.
I realise there is a risk of it not being rigid enough for the cornering
stress ?
Only one way to find out :-)

Hi Paul,
do you want to suspend the whole trike rear end with one rubber block,
oder each rear wheel with its own block?

Hi all
Been riding my trike for 6 years now My Python trike builds
<
few
and fancy building a new rear end with suspension.
The original Python suspension looks the easiest option , however a
amquestions ?
1) Will using 20" forks and wheels change any of the dimensions ? I
innerunder 80kg but may want to carry up to 20kg of camping gear ?
2) Is the rubber block available in Germany say from Ebay ?
3) If I decided to make my own as suggested using circles cut from
theretubes how tall should it be ? and what diameter bearing in mind
============================================================will be 2 wheels suspended.============================================================
