@FotoVorschlag: #FotoVorschlag #Kitschiges: Bin mir nicht sicher, welches der #Velomobile ich am kitschigsten finde:

* Das Weiße mit dem alte Mercedes-Grill,
* Das Orangefarbene mit blauen Punkten,
* oder doch das Pinke?

Vermutlich doch das Pinke. 😇

@ascentale @xtaran @bikenite A3. Not these ones, but there was some other vehicle I saw a video of from #Spezi2025 where the pedaling was only telling the motor how much juice to generate. While I don't want to pooh-pooh possible accessibility if that design really does great things for people with an access need, #BikeNite

@giggls auf der waren einige Solarpanels an Fahrrädern, oder Anhängern zu sehen. Allerdings nicht bei den Ausstellern sondern auf der Zeltwiese. Soweit ich das mitbekommen habe geben die gerne Auskunft über Einsatz, Reichweite und Zuverlässigkeit.

Another video on the guy who came to #Spezi2025 with a recumbent tandem he made out of recycled wood and metal.

Another light electric vehicle that was at #Spezi2025 They make both fully electric and ones that are pedalable with e-assist.

This reminds me of a pedal boat. Panelist says it's well built, with great suspension.

If we want to get people out of cars, esp gas cars, old guard macho ableist cycling culture has got to unlearn their ableism and other toxic crap.

If people want a covered bike/trike/quad with e-assist, you should be happy they are going car-light or car-free! Be supportive!

It is a real frontier period in micromobility so there are still things to work out as far as infrastructure, rules, etiquette, etc. but we'll do better if we work together #Spezi2025 #Recumbent #BikeTooter #ClimateChange

They didn't mention an URL for it, but there was an advanced prototype of the Carbike there and they said it was constantly busy on the test track...very popular.

I think we're seeing a rise of enclosed e-bike/trike/quad ideas in order to get folks out of cars, whether they see themselves as "bike people" or not. There's a segment of the population that really wants an all-weather, inexpensive e-vehicle.

I hope the macho ableist "that's cheating" guys shut up. #Spezi2025 #Recumbent #BikeTooter

The panelists are enthusing about the Cixi chainless system that GoLo and others are using. It allows you to pedal in reverse, which is definitely something trike and quad users need due to not having as tight a turning radius as short wheelbase bicycles.

EDIT: Also has automatic shifting and allows use of regenerative braking (if I understand correctly).

One thing that I've seen and also heard is that more recumbent trike manufacturers are adding handcycle options to their lines.

If this sticks, it's very good news for disabled riders who need it as the competition will likely bring prices lower. #Recumbent #Accessibility #Spezi2025
