ground clearance ? eg JL
Posted: Sun Feb 14, 2010 7:11 pm
I'm making a workbench out of an old hospital bed that I dragged out of a skip.
As the base doesn't go completely to the floor i will need a ramp to get bikes onto it.
Due to workshop space I'd like the ramp to be as short as possible.
I can work out the angles and lengths, but need to know what gives the worst ground clearance on a lambretta ? I'm thinking the pipe coming off a JL stub always seems to be bashed flat, so how far is this off the ground ? then I can make the ramp to fit the worse case. or anything else that touches the deck, when riding over speed bumps eg ?
