Hello,

just a side note: Rembember that especially for the python (unlike most other recumbents) a lot of steering input comes from the shoulders. So it is always a good idea to give shoulders and bottom a good support.

Cheers,
Jürgen.

Hi guys

The bulkiest part of a python and many other recumbents is the seat.
Pythons like Olafs Monty (16") and the Tihas bigger 20"
http://myrecumbent.blogspot.ro/2013/05/python-turned-peregrine.html
are nice, because split apart they are pretty small. But the seat keeps
being bulky.

I could not find any seats like the one I think about. But when doing my
research I found this wooden seat http://hebike.borec.cz/DSCN9094s.jpg.
Removing those round sticks from the seat would come close to my idea.
So basically there are two anatomically formed tubes that just are
linked together on the ends. Those two tubes are on both sides of your
spine and are covered with some elastic material to get some comfort. If
that fits your back very well I would think that comfort is ok and the
bike is getting much smaller for transport without the need to seperate
the seat from the rest of the bike.

Do you have some (alternate) ideas for that (a) nonbulky seat?


regards,

christian
