Tangerine Dream? An intriguing machine, beautifully done. I would be probably even more intrigued had I not situated myself in one of the few places in Florida that actually has hills. I suspect moving on 80 lb machine uphill is not quite as much fun as zipping along in the flats cheating the air resistance.

I may have to bow to the inevitability of my increasing decrepitude and introduce a little electricity into my life - or at least into my cycling propulsion. It seems that the well-oiled machine that was my body half a century ago has developed a few somewhat dodgy bits.

Hi, I like watching your channel, a bit out of my price league, but I think to be a really practical alternative to a car you need electrical assist on these machines. Most velomobile youtube videos are made where its flat or going down hill. Give it some decent electricity and I wouldnt mind having one, creeping up hills at a snail pace would have me regretting buying one.
@cjeam91995 жыл бұрын
I agree with electric assistance it’s a real game changer. But all heavy bikes are slow uphill, I’m touring at the moment on a regular bike and barely move up some of the longer hills.

What a beautiful machine👍 I was going to ask about riding in the hot humid heat but I see you said it was no problem👍... I mentioned a while ago I was thinking about getting a HP Velotechnic scorpion but once I'd seen this machine I was thinking I like the aerodynamics, protection from weather and it had loads of storage, all positives for me plus a possible excellent touring machine👍... I know they are very pricey and who knows what is going on with Brexit and the exchange rate but I think I may visit and try one out BUT I'm thinking of going touring in Australia end of next year BUT unlike the HP scorpion which is foldable, the Quattro is not so getting it on a plane might be tricky, I could saw it in half😂... I wonder if you might have any contacts, mates who have cycled in Oz but traveled from the UK with their bikes? I imagine it might cost a couple of quid or might be deemed freight so can't go on the plane I will be in🤔... Anyway that is one cracking machine and I'm looking forward to hearing more about it. Cheers, Nick✌️

Ik rij nu een jaar in een soortgelijke fiets. Afgezien van heggen (simpelweg extra uitkijken en desnoods voorrang geven) is er bijna niks waar je beter in gezien wordt dan in een kleurige velomobiel. Als ik iets zou willen, is het juist minder opvallen. De hoogte is gelijk aan die van een echte sport auto. John verstaat trouwens geen Nederlands dus beide onze posts gaan aan hem verloren.

I find the quattro really intriguing. I live in rural Wales (lots of single width country lanes) and have never seen one on the roads around here. A couple of questions, if you have the time: How is reversing dealt with? What is the suspension like on cobbled/unpaved roads? Thanks, Dave.
@velo-ads42065 жыл бұрын
Hi, reversing is dealt with by sticking your heels through two slots that have been cut away in the floor and scooting backwards. It handles cobbles and bumpy surfaces ok due to the soft ride, you do have to go slowly incase it bottoms out as it does sit low.
