SAFETY BRIEFING.

  • Wear a helmet. Despite recent advances in medical science, brains still cannot be mended nor replaced.
  • Wear gloves or mitts. Hands often hit the ground first. Cuts and grazes invite infection and a hospital visit.
  • Wear eye protection, it only takes a twig or thorn to lose an eye. Crud catchers are a good idea in mucky weather.
  • When downhilling, for your own protection, allow plenty of space behind the rider in front.
  • Bring a bare minimum emergency tool kit and a spare inner tube.
  • Breakdowns are a bore. Plan not to have any by ensuring your bike is in perfect working order.
  • Punctures are also tedious. You can minimise them by fitting latex tubes, slime tubes or running tubeless tyres.

Thought it would be a go crack for christmas parties and charity rides etc.

Added to which it will stop people moaning about being left behind.

It looks like it would snap in the middle!

What a laugh!

Those spokes had better be strong!! How would you manage the pedal preferences?

Also, it made me wonder about going down Jacob's Ladder on it - what if you were on the back and everyone else jumped off? Aaaaaaaaaaieeeeeee......

Peddle prefrences easy change front srockets to your desired level of spin and Jacobs Ladder? I dont mind as long as I get the front seat with that lenght of wheel base you would never go over the handle bars.

Bet it coners like a Whippet! Coach that is not On-One.
