this was my first attempt at making a gravity bike. it worked to a point but it was soon clear what needed changing. the main problem was the wheels. slow, heavy and only rated to 40 psi. the tyres i used back then took 120 psi so it was a how brave (or stupid) do you feel scenario whenever you put air in them. also the smell of overheated plastic and rubber under braking could be a bit offputting. the knee boards were too high and a crap angle. the nose fairing had no safe edging on it and would try to chop your fingers off in the event of even a small spill, and the rear mudguard/seat was just shit. APPART FROM THAT IT WAS ACE ! Attachments:
