side unfolded
Keith Rowell Design
Adding another articulation, torso like, gets this particular arrangement up to 26". Not very big so far. I've minimized the distances involved in order to get it into a trunk. The frame is stout enough to carry more weight, so we should think about increasing the size as best we can, and still keep it in a managable "folded" dimension.
This begs the question, "how small of a trunk does it have to fit into"? Anyone what to volunteer their trunk dimensions? I'll check mine for a miatta, but I can tell you it's probably already to big for that...
A third articulaton would resemble a head and arms. Any ideas at all that you guys have on these, please post a comment. It keeps things moving along if we get alot of opinions early. Saves on dead ends...
