Hi we have a tandem quad, but are finding it very difficult to create a fully enclosed shell for(was thinking fabric, due to the weight, and versatility to rollup/zip off certain sections depending on the weather), have a look at some pics of it at www.steppebysteppe.com.au Its not really a standard velomobile.Since,we're having trouble making a fairing for it at the moment(mainly creating the shape/ skeleton), has anyone done similar projects? Enclosing the quike itself is not for speed, but rather just to protect us from the elements (sun,wind,rain,snow etc), but it need to be aerodynamic enough from any direction so as not to become a sail. I think the whole problem is the size of it.....any ideas? Any suggestions of pics, or similar ones you've built, i'm running out of ideas! thanks -roge -- This message comes to you via the Velomobile <at> bikelist.org mailing list, sponsored by http://ihpva.org/ Visit http://bikelist.org/mailman/listinfo/velomobile to manage your subscription.
