The project of a faired bike |
The picture above is taken from an advertisment, except for the rightmost vehicle. I have added the faired bike. |
1 Idea for a faired trikeA faired bike is what I have been thinking of for a long time. That is because the weather in Scandinavia is not always encouraging to use open bikes. Of course there is a summer also here, but it is shorter than in central Europe.One concept for a faired bike is to use the second concept, B-line, but with two rear wheels . This bike reminds of the Jouta, but the line is more flat. It will probably give a safer run at higher speed. |
2.2 My next project |
However, you saw the word probably underscored in the past paragraph.
There are a lot of unknown factors in the model above. Therefore I will
first try another concept.
Keep it as simple as possible, but not simplier I will first try to make a more simple model, simple in the following senses:
One thing that is bothering me is again the rear wheel and the steering angle. Based on some small models I think that a 45o angle and a small positive trail will work best. If you have opinions or knowledge in this case, please let me know. |
