Hello, I agree with Torben written about the bushing topic

my third python I plan to build with bronse bushings. my idea is to use 
bronse screws screwed in steel holes (understandable?) one on the top 
and one on the bottom, after unscrewing them, the python can be 
separated. And when the bronse screws get thinner they can be simply 
changed by new ones.
Any reponse on that?

I also would like the steering not to go so smoothly and easy, because 
the leverarm for steering (the feet) is very long.

I just came back from my evening training tour. 26 km are done and ist 
is just wonderful. I am not going faster than 15 km/h. my green python 
stayes straigt even when the feet get off the pedals, with the first 
prototype it had been the opposite.

It is a nice feeling laying in my beach-chair riding through the fields, the 
hands hanging down, but no time for dreaming, the python still is the 
master.
