Monsterbike mounting of test seat 02

I quickly noticed that a very comfortable angle was very flat, so i needed to raise my feet. My thinking was confirmed with two other recumbent bicycle users. So ...i need to adjust my sideview body shell proposal.

A advantage is that the feet are less disturbing for the steering of the front wheel.
A disadvantage is the higher placement of the legs. So if you are stopping a lot, you will get a good training (always good for the belly muscles :) ).
Another advantage is that the lower part of the body can be less wide due to the higher placement of the feet. I feared a bit that the sides could have touched the ground if Blez would testride it. :)

Another thing was also noticed. The handle bar needs to be further backwards. No problem. We will weld that new one soon. I will make it a little more narrow. Should be no problem because the moment arm is about the same due to the more backwards placement of the handles.

And yes ...it is possible to keep the heavy scooter upright from this position.
