Wow!
Thanks for all the pictures and links. I'm in the process of looking for a donor bike for a back half and possibly some wheels to start off the front end design. That cigar family bike is very close to what I am hoping to build.
I know some ATV's use a disc brake on the axle rather than on each wheel, can that be applied to bicycles as well? I ride up a .25mi hill to get to the grocery store and then ride back down it to get home so slowing and stopping a loaded bike is priority 1 but I'm not sure i have the fabrication ability to do a custom disc brake setup for each wheel.
