Catrike Corovelo V2.1
Took my "V2" shell and hacked the rear down to a sharper taper to improve aerodynamics and improve the flow from the top of the cap down the tail.
Also shortened the hatch and created a second pivot to allow it to be unfolded in two parts for easier entry/exit.
While doing the previous step I also implemented a small aluminum arch to the hatch to increase rigidity and give myself a bit more headroom.
The hatch actually slams shut now with a satisfying "thud!"
Changed up the duct tape stripe job a bit, too.
Overall the changes made riding this much more comfortable, and - although it could be placebo - faster, as far as I can tell.
