Hi All,
Introducing a triple-pivot folding python delta trike, with ~60 deg pivot
angle. All-steering is a bonus. Rear wheel steering is done by leaning into
the corner and away from the seat, which is required for turning stability with
this narrow-track trike and does take some learning. It is possible to turn by
rear wheel steering only, and turning circle can be dizzy-tight with AWS.
Going straight, front-wheel pedal steering disturbance seems to be compensated
by the rear wheels. The spring between the rear wheels is needed to dampen
wheel shimmy, perhaps some cargo will also help... http://youtu.be/8-jgq4kYYwg
Cheers,
Vi
