My nipper is 6.4 and happily fits But does it have a resting space to the left of the clutch pedal?

Surely they must have one out in France you could look at, I saw one being demonstrated at a show over there on a Faceache site during the week.

Actually, let me qualify my answer.
I didn't notice a footrest to the left of the clutch in any of the 3 launch night cars. However these were 12 month old engineering prototypes so may not be representative of the final production cars. For example, one had fixed top mounted pedals whereas another had the adjustable floor mounted pedals.

I thought it was still Quaife?
If you have a reference for that, please give it. I have read on here and elsewhere that it is no longer from Quaife. Italian - Graziano perhaps?

Is it true that the old double sided steel swing arm with a steel wheel is used in the rear? If it’s true, that would be truly disappointing. That means you would have to disassemble the rear suspension to fix a flat. Even the $ 25,000 Vanderhall has a single sided aluminium swing arm and bespoke aluminium wheel and disc brake. Does anyone know what the final production rear suspension will be on the “all aluminium “Super 3 ?

I am really surprised that the new Super 3 still has the same double-sided steel rear swinging arm as used on the M3W.
When we are told that so much thought and innovation has gone into the design and development of this latest 3 wheeler, I would have expected the rear suspension to be a single sided cast aluminium (or suitably fabricated steel) swinging arm to facilitate easy removal of the rear wheel if stuck with a puncture miles from home.
This should have been one of MMC's major priorities.
So much for progress!
