I build Human Powered Vehicles. But I only ride "Upright" bikes (that tiny portion of the bike market that is NOT "Recumbent").
I started out with the intent of installing Electric Moped Accessories on my Bicycle. But that proved impossible , as the Electric Moped hadn't been invented yet. So, since I was an Engineering Student, and I figured if worse comes to worse, I can submit my project for extra credit, I went ahead and started building Prototypes.
Now, today, 30 years later, one of these Prototypes, the Type 3 , has gone into limited production. It is called MODEL 317, and here are a few photos...
I want to ask if in your own opinion(s), does this look like it sort of approximates a classic "Tear Drop" shape, viewed from above ?
