" The Python is a center-steered lowracer with 2x26" wheels, front wheel drive..." (Juergen Mages)
The idea comes from Juergen Mages in Germany - The project and the history is in the link beside.
I was planning to make a recumbent bike to use an old bike of my wife, but when I saw the site of Python I liked the idea. The fact that there is only one Python in Brazil and maybe 30 or 40  over the world ( I supose... )  turn the project into a challenge.
After 12 days I finished the work with 2 problems: Colision with te pedals ( solved), and the long distance BB-EOS that I need to solve.
In 06/08/2006, after 3 weeks I solved the problems and started the learning process...

First problem:
Colision between new rear tube and pedals !
Second  problem:

Due distance BB-EOS = 81 cm too much long,  I will need to cut the tube moreless 10 cm to reach the pedals !!
Rework Process
