Some new pictures. 4 mile test ride went fine. Does Not shake , rattle... but it does roll.
One minor glitch, the Fairing, which is 12 inches wide and 16 inches long, is now too long for the bike to fit in the elevator of my building. I can make a new Fairing with the Coroplast on hand, or I could make a 12 inch cube , which would be non-aerodynamic, or a 10 inch cube. I consider the camera mount to be fairly important.
Or I could saw off the nose of the existing Fairing, and patch the hole with more Coroplast.
Or I could lift the bike and roll it on it's rear wheel, placing it in the elevator vertically. Or I could move to the cottage where I was living before, but it is too small, only 480 sq. feet. (This apt. is 720 sq. feet).
Or I could saw-off a few inches from the tail end of the rear Panniers! Or I could swop rear Panniers with this and another bike.
