Just wondering about a new year project.  It’d be a chance to learn lots of new skills!!!
Does anyone know where I might find plans.  Free or reasonable cost for a self built monocoque velomobile.

As far as I know all home builds are from the inspiration and intuition of individual builders, although  they may borrow design aspects of commercial velomobiles there are no drawings/instructions of sufficient detail to form "a build your own".

You could talk to Leo at Alligt about the base price of Alleweder kits?

I don't think he does kits any more Geoff. I looked at his web site and could find only info that said he didn't.

Probably better to buy the "So you want to build" book from the club bookshop.

All the best.

I suppose that depends which new skills you want to learn ?

There are several good wooden Velomobile about ? a couple on the BROL forum.

There are also some plans available from here :-
