Making a PYTHON (recumbent bike) in a single day!

The Python bike I used was build in a single day. But ... riding it was a lesson that took longer.

for me it took more like 6 months than a single day, anothere two months to get it to youtube:), now the video is ready, check it out and comment.

@raftmant I guess that you really wanted a road-legal version. For me it was just a version to be able to test the riding. Big fun!

since you have small wheels, why didnt you fit stabilisers so you didnt fall off so much :D

[nestofdragons]

stabilers are more of a problem than a solution. You need to lean into the turn. Keeping the bike straight up makes you go only straight forward.

The difference between leaning into a turn and falling of the bike is really not that much. Like I said in the video ... it is difficult to ride this bike.

Good Job!.. *what busts my chops is this, when are you gonna start charging £3,499 per bike :(

[nestofdragons]

Whahaaaa! It did cost me NOTHING. Oeps! I lie! I bought the seat second hand for about 40 euros.

Changes are coming. Some guys are really thinking about making recumbent bikes cheaper. But remember ...the market is rather small, so numbers of production are small. and that gets the price rather high. Sad, but true.
