Merci Laurent,

wheelbase: 114,5

isn´t this a little bit short for your size? I guess that you are at least 185 cm tall.


weight:13kg

Bravo, this is really a light one!


weight with pilot: 88kg, 51kg on front wheel, 37kg on rear
wheel mean cg 48cm back on front axle

I will get data from P1 and P3 as soon as possible.


Pivot Angle [°] : 69°
Trail: -30
until around 35/40 km/h after, the bike become to "nervous" and i can
stay on...at this "high" speed the quickness of reaction the bike have
is out of proportion with my quickness and my precision of my mouvment
to controle the bike... this is my feeling

Pivot angle is quite steep and negtive trail is long - this might make the bike a little nervous. Maybe you feel a little difference with a 20" rear wheel. After all, you are very courageous, going that fast after two days of training. It took me weeks to ride faster than 30 km/h with P1. In general you are right: the python is an excellent bike for flat terrain! The more relaxed I feel, the easier I can let the bike roll downhills.

Bon courage,
Jürgen.
