I have started on two bikes and I have some questions. I have read everything 
that I could find on http://www.python-lowracer.de. and on Youtube.com. I 
assume that the info from the Project Survey is from 2004-2006 and has not been 
updated. What do most of the later bikes have for: 
Ground clearance
Seat height
Wheelbase
Pivot angle
With a 26” front wheel, how high is the BB/Crank center from the ground. I’m 
180cm (5’9”)tall, 83.5cm (32.8”) inseam and am having problems with the ground 
clearance of the pivot. I’m thinking that I will have to have a bend in the 
front frame rails to change the angle. If so should the bend be in front or 
behind the axle? Also, what is being used for the pivot other than a bottom 
bracket? Are pivot parts custom made or off the shelf items? From what I see of 
the Python bikes that have been built, the USA is far behind and we have much 
to learn from the “Python World”. I thank Jürgen Mages and all of the other 
owners/builders out there!! Again, THANKS for any help that can be offered.
