Tall people not need apply




Short bikes...the way of the future!

Duane, who has a shop up at lowe mill generously helped me last night at LifeCycles. in the process we got a little crazy and tested the waters on how small of wheels we could get on a full size frame. This with a little work today is what we came up with. People loved it! Yes those are handlebars for a seat post. I'm getting my acetylene filled soon so i can weld on some "wings".

That's pretty sweet. 102mm cranks? We could get a 20" wheel from a geared bike, put on a cog, and put it on fixed gear gallery.

we should build more of these little things and start small bike jousting the walls would be much safer than those of a tall bike or better yet small bike polo
