Hi
Jurgen, you've said both that the turning radius is 5-7 meters and the
following:
Olaf,
the limit is the colission of the front fender with the edge of
the seat plate. With my first python I had a radius of 1.5m
versus the practical turning radius of 2.5m after becoming
an experienced rider (3.5m it was in the beginning!).
Jürgen.
Which is it? 2.5m seems _really_ good for me, I think 5 meters is still
quite good for a recumbent.
Just wondering
Some time ago (a week?) I sent a mail to the mailing list regarding the
off-road capability of the Python. Which recumbents have you been able
to compare it to? How does it handle in sand?
Has the message actually been received? I didn't get it via the mailing
list, but maybe that's normal?
Thanks
Sam
PS.: I'm still thinking about the python with a small rear wheel, that
would decrease the wheelbase tremendously.
