Looks nice and so easy but is it realy easy to make a coroplast fearing. I have 14m2 coroplast in my shed it is 3mm and white. Now i see some youtube trikes and now i know, it will work. Graet idea to make the tandem for your son. I like to work with aluminium, is your trike a Raptor model ?
-
nice use of coroplast
are you still riding this?

Inventive, good design if a little unrefined and I enjoyed the video.
Thanks for posting.

Just wondering... If it was built for a Carfree Challenge, how did you get it to the place where the competition was held?
-
Well Done, i like your construction although, it's more for street use than racing......... if i had done something like that the scrutineers would have defected my trike :(

Does the body cut wind resistance to any measurable degree? It looks perfectly positioned to catch you in the throat in a collision.

I second that!

You should put together a work plan so others can follow in your footsteps. The tailbox you have is the best I have seen, simply because it is easily removable. With commuting long distances that is a great feature to have.

I must do this. I wonder where you get the recycled signs.

Velomobile Fairing Update 2by triketrek111,799 views
ok cool. So may I ask how much this project cost you. I have an electric bike. I want something similar to my bike that would shield me from the elements. It gets cold here. Your velomobile seems like a good fit.

I'm guessing by project you're referring to the fairing part not the trike itself. The fairing is made out of 4mil coroplast. One sheet is a recycled political sign. The other two cost me $18 a piece at a sign shop. There's also maybe $20 worth of aluminum some hot glue and some colored electrical tape. The only thing to be aware of if doing this for a two wheeled bike is that the fairing will make you more vulnerable to crosswinds. Its not so much a problem with three wheels.
