This ins certainly an interesting thread, thinking out of the box. I was however waiting for the "please send $xxxx to Nigeria for the detailed drawings so you can apply for the patent and make $xxxxxxxxxxxxx to rescue etc etc.

From memory linear drive was on this design.
It appears that Graeme Obree's bike for Battle Mountain is Linear drive.
It will be interesting to see how it goes.

New GENUS of Bicycle Can you make this Sunnycle

Grats on the new bike

most recumbent bikes i have seen are the low to the ground trike affairs more like a grownups version of the big wheels, this one is so excellent its no wonder it did spectacularly in its class.

did you get to test ride one? how did it ride? how was the center of balance? how was the cornering? what was it like starting and stopping?

The fact it's just shy of two years since Sunny last posted anything might give a hint as to how well it went..
