Easily the best-looking velomobile I've seen. Nice job, guys!

Great to have you in Morwell. Breath of fresh air in the community. Keen to come in and give a velomobile a try. Keen to know the cruising speed on the flats for a somewhat fit young guy.
@casualguy39386 ай бұрын
IIRC, 150 watts in a velomobile is almost 50kph give or take depending on total weight, wind direction, tire selection and road slope. I would assume the speed for a Trisled would be about the same.

Super cool , slick clean lines , These things are way out of my ability to purchase but I still want one and think they are super cool. Best wished for you and your business. BTW , Im over here in America where you just don't see velomobiles . I've seen a couple in person from a distance as an exhibition at a bike race but never seen one on the road or been able to eyeball one up close , I have a trike, with disc's up front and a carbon trispoke in back , I enjoy my ride but this is a whole different level

i wonder if it would be fun if the canopy were in two pieces... the part around the third window being separate and just slide forward horizontally inside the main canopy, so you can have a drive head out if you want. also makes the canopy that flips up a bit shorter. Cool process!

Has anyone realised yet, that any velonaut would overheat riding that because there's no/not enough airflow on the inside? Which also means that the glas will fog up and impair the vision. Kudos for design but it needs to work in practice otherwise it's useless.

It looks pretty cool, but I can only imagine entry and exit would be extremely cumbersome and the apparent lack of ventilation would cause some serious sweating.
@casualguy39386 ай бұрын
At the expense of speed, you could incorporate better airflow for cooling, but you can also wear a hydration bag full of icy hydration in a backpack but worn backwards on your chest to cool off. Drink it as you ride and when you are empty, refill it. On the hottest days 3 liters gets me about 2-3 hours of cooling and hydration before refilling.

Bloody love it. How long did the process take all up? I don’t know if people realise how long it actually takes to get something like this out without the CNC router and foam plug. Would be good to see a comparison video. Would be awesome to see a rapid prototyped aero shell for some unfaired bikes…. a long John style cargo bike would make massive gains with some aero attention…..

All up around 150 man hours excluding CAD modelling. Approximately 40 hours of machine time.

@@TriSled and I’m guessing previously would be more man hours without the clean foam? And who knows how much longer than 40 hrs without the machine?

@@TriSled Imagine this cool looking aerodynamic weather enclosure but with full suspension, a 750w mid drive kit (road legal in USA) a bit longer so you have storage room for groceries behind the seat. Make a seat that could lay flat so it could convert into a sleeping pod for road trips, a trailer hitch to connect a bicycle trailer, room underneath the seat where could store 3 or 4 100w lightweight fold up solar panels to recharge its battery bank. Fans inside to keep you cool & an electric heated car like seat cover for heat. It'd be like a mini solar powered electric RV. When recharging, the solar panels could go on top to provide shade so it doesn't cook in the summer sun. You could use this like a mini car & stay warm and dry on rainy & cold days. It being very aerodynamic would be way more efficient than carrying groceries home on an ebike with saddle bags or bike trailer.

Better ventilation for the rider should be provided. Also, kind of a protection for a long hair user that can stuck in the rear wheel the way it is now. Like you said, it's a prototype.

A bit too laid-back in my opinion, I prefer the more upward-position of the classics (getting in/out of this is something reserved only to athletes, and not average commuters)... Aside to that, it should be much more affordable than the all-carbon-ones, cause it contains a simple ready-made steel-frame. I think, that´s a Plus, IF it really ends up being more affordable than the all-carbon-ones (which are really much more work to build and use up much more of the expensive carbon-fibre)...

It actually feels better than if on a road bike. I can do 3 hours on my TT bike then I need a hoist to get off it. I can do 8 hours straight on my recumbent and simply need to refuel.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but: is the windscreen an off the shelf part, or did you guys make that in house? It seems like one of the more annoying parts of the build to get right. (Also, as a tiny company engineer/manager, I feel you on the "keeping other things running so the team can stretch their legs on a project" thing. It's usually worth it, and honestly kind of fun to get back into the more immediate-payoff tasks for a bit.)

We vacuum form our own windscreens with a purpose built machine in house. We make shapes for most other manufacturers as well as our own.
