Can you send a link of these wheels?

@@VelomobileWorld i posted the link, i believe youtube does not like links. just google "Falcon Pro WHEEL Trilight-C21 light bycicle" you can ask them to make sturmey archer hub for front or the df rear 32 hub. tri spoke is low maintance. you dont need to check spoke tension. and the aerodynamic gains are huge.

@@VelomobileWorld sorry utube delet my comments think it spam

@@oliverhofmann2908 gates belt length can’t be adjusted once installed I believe. The bottom bracket needs to move to adjust the reach for different sized riders. You also can’t use belts with derailleurs. The majority of Velomobiles use single sided rear swingarms. That allows changing rear tire/tube without removing the wheel and allows a fully enclosed drivetrain. That would all have to be completely redesigned for a belt drive and you’d lose the easy tire changes, fully enclosed drivetrain, and a bunch of cargo space for a double sided swingarm. With the enclosed drivetrain a properly maintained chain can easily last 5-10,000 miles. A belt drive would increase complexity and mean you’d have to fully redesign all the current Velomobiles. The weight savings wouldn’t be that big when you take into account having to add a rohloff, which also can’t be used with single sided rear swingarms.

belts have higher recistance

@@laurentrouchairoles8271 it is possible to operate tank steering with one hand. The action is not so heavy as you think. However, it is a good idea to have 2 hands for braking. You still have the option for tiller steering. Tiller is my personal preference.

No you don't need both hands but if you want to brake you need both hands

Any modifications to the DFXL would come from InterCity Bike. Ymte is in charge of the design for DFXL/DF and Tuna.

Hi the development of DF/DFXL/Tuna is in hands of Intercitybike

Danke

Everyting is possible but it is a big job of cutting lamination etc

I’ll be there in a week and a half for final inspection and will be doing videos just like last time.

Ben will take care of it

Thanks a lot

Thanks, we will!!

@@VelomobileWorld I have no doubt!!!😉👍👌

Is in process, don't worry

@@VelomobileWorld Checked today. EDT is now 2024-10-18. No words

We have on the website much information under the section technical support. Have a look there please.

that's your interpration. I am Dutch as well

I am sorry I cannot France and I cannot understand with google translate what you exact says

Er zijn dingen die ik niet kan vertellen. Die zijn tussen Velomobileworld en Velomobiel. Er is geen ruzie maar ook niet alle details kunnen gedeeld worden. Daarom kan ik niet ingaan op je vragen. Vriendelijke groet Jan

I get where you're coming from as a QV owner. But expanding to have a bigger workforce, which costs more and is a hassle to manage, isn't always great. During COVID, we had two shifts and almost 50 employees. It was a huge challenge, and I couldn't maintain the standards I wanted over the long term. We aim for a company culture that mixes quality and fun. To deliver the quality we want and enjoy our work, we had to make some changes.

it is indeed nice..

why not? I say in the video that we will concentrate on alpha en bulk models

thanks

Well the Dutch have there idea's apparently.

Yeah, well, deleting posts with questions doesn't help with that.

which post is deleted?

@@VelomobileWorld A post of mine, yesterday. I said: "Ik wens jullie veel succes en geluk. Ik hoop echt dat het jullie lukt om efficiënter uitstekende velomobielen te (blijven) maken. Ik hoop dat jullie meer rust en ruimte voor andere dingen dan werk vinden. Toch bekruipt velen in de velomobielwereld het gevoel dat er meer aan de hand is dan uit de video blijkt. Waarom juist gekozen voor het opzeggen van de samenwerking met velomobiel punt nl?

Ik weet niet wat er gebeurd is maar ik heb geen post gedelete. De details waarom er gekozen is om de samen werking met Velomobiel.nl kan ik niet delen die blijven tussen velomobileworld en velomobiel.nl. Er is geen ruzie maar er is van onze kant gekozen om de samenwerking af te bouwen.

Well the snoek is not stopped. We only stop to produce it. And if a Snoek fits you better I am happy to hear. I am curious by which dealer you bought the A7

@@VelomobileWorld Velomobile Nord. I do wish you the best of luck and am still very thankful you are mass producing velomobiles.

Okay thank you for your answer. Could you send me maybe a email about some more explaination jan@velomobileworld.com in order I can understand the situation better and try to make sure we avoid disappointment in the future as much as we can

thanks, we keep going forwards!!

To be honest, I don't speak France and google translate does not do a good job in this case.

Not your fault, even the original French is hard to follow, never mind translate

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the compliments. I agree the Snoek is a good velomobile. We need to focus only on some things in order the things we do become better and better. I and the team had the focus spread to thin and it is not funny to keep to much balls up for to long. The pleasure of building velomobiles are dissapearing if you do that to long. That's why we took this decision

Dankje wel, we doen ons best

De bestaande orders worden gemaakt. Er is geen ruzie

De reden leg ik uit. dat we gaan focussen op een aantal modellen.

@@VelomobileWorld Dan had je beter de samenwerking met de heer DF kunnen beëindigen. Want hij maakt ieder jaar een nieuw model en kraakt daarna online zijn vorige model af, zodat de verkoop daarvan instort.

Inderdaad. Vreemd verhaal. Fenn en intercitybikes komen ook regelmatig met nieuwe modellen. Ik wens jullie veel succes en geluk. Ik hoop echt dat het jullie lukt om efficiënter (en goedkoper?) uitstekende velomobielen te (blijven) maken. Ik hoop dat jullie meer rust en ruimte voor andere dingen dan werk vinden. Toch bekruipt velen in de velombielwereld het gevoel dat er meer aan de hand is dan uit de video blijkt. Waarom juist gekozen voor het opzeggen van de samenwerking met velomobiel . nl?

Wij hebben onze besluiten genomen die wij denken dat goed zijn.

@@VelomobileWorld Oh, dat geloof ik meteen en ik wens jullie veel succes en geluk. Ik hoop echt dat het jullie lukt om efficiënter (en daarmee goedkoper?) goede velomobielen te bouwen, daar is de velomobielwereld mee gediend. En het zou fijn zijn als jullie meer rust en aandacht voor andere dingen dan werken kunnen vinden. Toch hebben velen in de velomobielwereld de indruk dat er meer achter het stoppen met juist velomobiel.nl zit dan wat in deze video naar voren komt.

yes

Wish you all the success in the world. You have worked hard for it producing superb velomobiles

Thanks a lot@@

the urban 4 is not yet made. the fourth is still in production

It will take some years to sell 300 urbans ;-) So see you in 4-5 years

Velomobiel nl can always continue as they wish. Tomorrow we send some more clarification on youtube

Front acces is already bigger in the new version. Big pants comes maybe

I agree... but we cannot keep all kinds of models available.

The bulk with adapters will work and the Snoek. But in general the velomobiles are made for taller persons

We do!

Absolutely!!

@@VelomobileWorld 😉👍👌

I also heard yesterday, we are looking for alternatives

Yes i heard also yesterday

It is!

I think it’s the Mk1 that killed the SL. The standard tiller version is so similar that I wondered where the SL should go. I am curious what will happen to the GT. That’s still an option for large people but the Mk1 with tank steering is nearly as roomy.

Yes. It was the Bülk that replaced the SL. The Bülk can fit a much larger number of people and it is as fast as the SL unless you can ride 50kmh or more for a long time. I think also people are more interested in really practical Velomobiles now that are very efficient instead of just Velomobiles for racing.

Yes but if clients decide that they don't want to buy it.... It is already for multiple years almost no orders

@@mnveloguy thats complete bullshit! in racing you got lots of corners wider wheel distance on urban/4more wil increase your overall speed, in milan i always had to slow down to 17 mph not to tip over now i go 21 mph in the df which i placed lower to the ground. it will increase your overall speed.

You're welcome!

You're welcome!

The owner is way too shy for that. That‘s why he has chosen a bülk: drive with closed lid the whole time even in summer sweating like crazy and especially when crossing the path of billions of tourists in interlaken, where he lives nearby. The owner wants to commute a nice flat 50 km route (such exist even in switzerland) and travel in the little spare time. He’s is a quite lazy one: so a large opening to get in and out and an ultra comfortable seat with a relaxed medium reclined position were mandatory. Colour and design have the intention to de-escalate (auto)mobile situations and brighten up the mood. 😊

well good idea!!

@@froggomobile the bike of the week is a different bike each week. I don’t think all of them would be too shy. They could even write their answers and Hannah could read them so the owner stays anonymous 🙂 Cool idea with the design to deescalate driver situations. The frogs are happy and fun.

more birk butterfly's.

He does magic!!!

thanks

Stimmt!!

Yes, we agree to. Beside that Jurg and Regula are also very nice persons to hang out with

Also in NL it is not allowed but.. in NL rules and practice. There is a gap between both and in RO the gap is even bigger

danke

mit Freude erledigt

200 is a lot for a model which does not exist to long

danke

Zum Glück gibt es für Leute ab 197cm auch andere Modelle ;-) A9.2
