Hello,
I love designing things, and I come up with what I think is a very cool design for a trike that rides like a bike. Maybe better than a bike. I've seen vids of motorcycles that have put two wheels up front and they handle extremely well, they say it's better than a bike configuration. Some inspiration for my project comes from Jetrike from youtube.
It's a tadpole with independent lean and steer, has both recumbent and upright seating positions, returns to upright automatically, and uses all wheel steering with most of it done up front, which helps me have a more narrow track at 26" using 20" wheels. The design favors a somewhat taller seating position (in recumbent) for better visibility and has a 48" wheelbase. Anyway, I'm interested in power assist for the trike, but so far it's just in concept stage.
