Now that the PX is standing on its own feet, I could take
some measures and had a first sit on it.

Pivot angle is 45 deg, clearance is 15 cm, wheelbase is 121 cm,
trail is -33 cm.

The self-centering force overpowers the wheelflop by far,
so I assume the PX will be rideable :-)

When turning, the seat is lifted several centimeters - much more
than P3 (milimeters). I will have to take another look at Dirk´s
helpful calculations about the seat rise.

Tomorrow I expect the first roll-out.
Building time was just 7 hours.

Cheers,
Jürgen.
