Balaton-Couch

Zielsetzung des letzten Radl-Projektes war ein leichtes Highracer-Liegerad für bergige Strecken.
Der Rahmen hat die Form eines Besenstiels. Verglichen mit gebogenen Rahmen, vereint der gerade Stock-Rahmen besser Steifigkeit mit geringem Gewicht.
Der Rahmen wurde von der ungarischen Firma Szatuna in der Nähe des Plattensees produziert.
Leider ertrug der Rahmen Manfreds schweren Körper nicht dauerhaft. Nach nicht einmal einem Jahr brach der Rahmen beim Befahren eines Kopfstein gepflasterten Weges durch. :-(

Target of the last bicycle-project was a light high-racer recumbent bike for hilly tours.
The frame has the form of a stick. Compared to curved frames, the stick frame combines better the features of high stiffness with low weight.
The stick was produced by Szatuna near the Hungarian lake Balaton.
Unfortunately, the Balaton-Couch did not long-lasting suffer Manfred's heavy body. After not even one year, during riding on a cobblestone route, the frame broke. :-(

    мне нравится твоя велосипедная тачка!
    ... с ней можно ездить и в далекие путешествия, только наверное маневренность (на поворотах) будет труднее, хотя  тандемы как-то поворачивают на поворотах :)

      I own the trailer for 7 years. I use it only for transporting goods after shopping. I have not done a big tour with this trailer.
      In the flat area and in curves, you do not sense the trailer. The trailer just tilts in the curve with the same angle, how you yourself. It's really easy to cycle with this trailer.  :-)
      ...only uphill you have to work hard!  :o)
