After posting up some photos of my finished car it was commented that my cycle wings maybe too far forward so I,ve been reading the IVA manual & trying to get my head around the IVA requirements for the front cycle wings,
So , I,ve replicated the diagram from the IVA manual onto some clear perspex & placed it against my wheels/cycle wings.
I can,t copy the relevant page from the manual onto this thread so here,s the notes from the manual...
from the attached photo do you think I have my cycle wings fitted in accordance to the IVA manual standard?
1. The vehicle must be fitted with wheel guards
2. The wheel guard must extend at least 30 degrees from the center of the wheel to the front
3. The wheel guard must extend at least 50 degrees from the center of the wheel to the rear
4. The wheel guard must cover the full breadth of the tyre throughout the required dimensions
5. The rear of the wheel guard must not terminate above a horizontal plane of 150mm above the wheel center
cheers
