Someone told me to post here. Here goes;
These shots are of the newest Lighting System:
Note the amber marker light, can you see it?
I decided to build a Human Powered Vehicle back in the seventies (that's the nineteen hundreds to you young folks). Went through several renditions before I built this, the Type Ten.
I've never posted a picture of myself before, but here I am:
The photo below is important, on account it shows the Yellow Chain-guard (Total Geekiness):
The Equipment which is not mounted to the bike is shown here, a red flag, road cones, and reflective vest:
SPECIFICATIONS (ELECTRICAL):
The NFA Vehicles Type Ten has two twelve volt lead-acid batteries. The one on the left is 12v/7ah and the one on the right is 12v/12ah.
The Headlight came in a box:
and is a 12 volt LED version of the 20 watt Halogen MR-16.
The Tail Lights are made by Signal-Stat, but they were packaged in bags under the NAPA brand label, as their Part # 1050.
I do not have the part number of the amber marker lights, but I tell you they each have two LEDS.
The Front End of this Bike is like a Vehicle, it is mounted to the frame at the head tube, and it does NOT turn with the handlebars. Since the weight is not borne by the handlebars, the steering is much easier.
The Type Ten carries an Inverter which gives 120 volts, up to 140 watts.
There is a Five Band Radio inside the front Fairing, so NOAA Weather Radio is available at all times . Which is useful, say, if you are on a ride and you see storm clouds.
The Fairing is a Recycled Apple iMac computer case, now painted yellow, and has Shark Teeth painted on it. The Shark theme is further emphasized by the fiberglass Fin, which supports the seat of this bike.
In closing, I would like to ask anyone who has NOT seen this bike before, to reply (or email me) and say you have never seen this bike before. I think most people have seen this bike before, and I believe I may be wasting my time posting here, although I have never posted to this sticky thread before, I have posted it in other forums.
