Avatar was designed with CAD software and the molds were five axis routed on an NC machine. This allowed for more design freedom to optimise the format and improve accuracy. Combined with Trisled's experience in the workshop, Avatar promises some exciting potential.

Sorcerer Series IV

On road date: September 2007

Achievements: • 4th place 2007 AIPP HPV Super Series - Round 3 • 2nd place 2007 AIPP HPV Super Series - overall placing (culmination of Series III and IV fairings) On reflection of the progress made with Sorcerer III, the next direction was clear: take all of the best elements from the three versions to create a machine with great road-use possibilities as well as maintaining enough speed to hold its own on a race track. Development returned to the Gizmo AX chassis with some improvements made to seating position. Following aerodynamic testing, refinements were made to the shape and frontal area. Wheel arches were added to the front wheels for weather protection and improvements to the entry hatch were also explored. As a result of this development, Trisled sold Sorcerer IV as a practical velomobile model for several years.
