Hi Folks//
This is my first post. Hope I get it correct. I currently ride an SWB
'bent (HP Velo Street Machine). Do a lot of hill riding with it. Uphill is
slow and downhill is fast. Saw the Python and became interested - perhaps the
short distance to the road while falling was attractive. I've had my share of
encounters with the road. I wonder if Patrick could provide some updates and
insight on his stainless Python?
o How is it working out? Are you satisfied with the design? Have you
modified the design?
o Do you have any thoughts on load carrying capability? Could it
handle a 90 kg rider? Is the design specific to rider weight?
o How does it handle at higher velocities? Say 50 - 70 kph downhill?
o Do you have any thoughts on using disc brakes for this Python
design? Do you use the front brakes at all?
Any insight would be helpful. I'm considering having a local (Seattle,
WA US) stainless fabricator put the frame together. Will probably stick with
26" wheels.
best regards,
Bob
