Finally got the drive system going today, But had no one to test drive it, so I ended up running round after it using the throttle peddle and steering it... not good....

 

So in the end i sat on it and drove it around for 5 mins with no problems,,, really surprised it pulled me around at my size with no issues!!

[MIGLIACARS]

Worked it out that it will do 7 mph,   thats gonna be about right I think

[mini_matt_106]

Epic!! So is it electric? I thought pedal power at first
