You did some very inspiring adaptations on the QV. I should definitely try the soundproofing. Thanks for the video full of useful tips ! Cheers from Switzerland!
Nice QuatreVelo, many happy and safe rides! And I love your choice of music, recognized Wintergatan immediately, am following Martin on his quest to build a perfect Marble Machine!
also a fan of wintergatan. do you think he will ever make a finished machine, or is he too much of a perfectionist. do you know the name of the music used in this vid?
Beautiful colours and nice stickers on the sides 👍🏻 The Quatrevelo was my second choice but I got a Milan GT because I don‘t need that much luggage space. Have fun with your velomobile and ride save 👍🏻
@@bernielove1 If rough roads are gravel tracks then I have to say that I don‘t ride such bad roads. I never had problems with the stability, only once I was not concentrated enough for the sidewind and went of the road with one frontwheel but could recover without stopping.
I like that access panel under the front. It occurred to me that might be a good place to have some kind of openable vent that drops down in the front with different stops for increased airflow inside. On non-rainy days, of course!
Bernie, congratulations on your new Quattrevelo! Your machine looks a lot like the one that I purchased through the Texas dealer a few years ago - a very similar green color, plus a few other doo-dads. It also sounds like your purchase and shipping experiences were incredibly seamless. Did you have a chance to try-out the Quattrevelo before placing the order with Jan?
No, I wasn't able to try one out before hand because I was too far away. I actually bought a Go-One EVO-R and didn't like it so that one is for sale right now if anyone is interested.
I climb really tough hills at 3 miles per hour but most small hills I can climb at the same speed as my upright bike; about 8 miles per hour. No worries at all since the Schlump drive can gear down really well.
I originally started the order from a company in Texas but there were issues with them so the main company in the Netherland (en.velomobiel.nl) reached out to me and took it over. They were very helpful and great to work with. Because of the issues with the company in Texas my order took over a year but I have heard that most people get theirs within 6 months. Cheers
@@bernielove1 Isn't it 11-36 now? But yes, total range is still not that much for such a heavy bike that is so aerodynamic. I have two front blades in my Mango+, but I never use the small blade in the front. But I never ride into mountains or hills.
