Hi,

We do ship these suspension units as retro fit kits. Please could you e-mail us direct for a quotation including shipping to your area. There are 2 types of Velomobile shells available for the Sprint. One of which is sold direct from Canada - The Borealis from (velomobiles.ca/Borealis.html) or the UK from Ocean Cycle - the Challenger )(oceancycle.co.uk.)

We do sell retro fit Motors, again could you please contact via email for a quotation.

Thanks

What is the track to this video called?

[Icetrikes]

@1SCHUTZSTAFFEL The track is called the Staunton Lick by Lemon Jelly.

The Vortex isn't available with suspension? Is that due to suspension stealing some force and performance? Or just weight or that it's not considered necessary on a road bike? I would also be interested in knowing how performance would compare to two-wheel bikes such as the M5 low-riders.

[Icetrikes]

The Vortex is generally aimed at faster road riding and like fast road bikes in general it is not configured with suspension. If greater comfort is a higher priority over pure speed then do consider the Sprint model. We are adding an option for the hard shell seat on the Sprint. True performance comparisons with other vehicles would be interesting though we have not had the chance to do this so far. M5 have some nice details of comparisons on their products.

The front suspension weighs an extra 2.3 pounds or 1.061 kg over a standard kingpost! as opposed to 10.61kg!

What about min, average and max speed?

[spectrospirit]

How much? Do you ship it? Do you have some enclosed ones as well to reduce friction and improve speed without leaving out the comfort, and at the same time a cover from the rain?

I would take one anytime!

How about electrical motors?

Now when winter is present at my place, a motor would be really helpful for all the wheels.

Anyway, let me know :)

Fantastic engineering, the linkage for the front suspension looks like it will have tendency not to dive under braking? and the rear looks to pedal really well. looks like it costs to much for me!

[lecoubucieresmihijo]

creo que es un triciclo muy delicado.

El diseño esta bien para andar en zonas urbanas, pero por lo que veo en las imágenes el concepto no sería capaz de soportar un "bache", "hoyo" o "agujero" a pesar del sistema de amortiguación que ostenta.

saludos!

no top comment? well my try ... GOOD LUCK :D

A great first effort! Congratulations on such a compact suspension design. An abbreviated version of the parallelograms on girder forks. No doubt the years will produce detail refinements and weight reductions to satisfy the conservative critics. Every bike and trike should have suspension by now! :-)

@0122542, I guess some people can look "more outside the box" and a REVERSED Trike isn't such a hard thing to understand...."3 wheels"...that's a TRIKE. Sorry you hate them...but MUCH more Stable.
