small wheels, single speed folding tandem.

It's cute and doesn't get much smaller when it's folded but it looks like it was built to carry some weight and has some cool features like brackets to hold the assembly tools welded to the frame. The brakes are fantastic. It is heading to a bike program in town and should be fun for someone! or someones!

Way cute. You know I have this sick kind of attraction for gaspipe tandems.
Didn't someone make an attachement for the Raleigh Twenty that would turn it into something like this?

That's pretty cool, is it Italian? A BF member (Kingfish maybe?) has something similar, but it's a triple!

Yes, it's Italian and takes up a lot of space. It's too hilly around here to get it off the block.

Frank,

Did you unearth this or did Timmy the Flipper come upon it? It should reside next to a Rail Trail and not here in the middle of northern New England!

I can't see that little cutie ever fitting into the trunk of a Fiat!

What's the seat tube length? Well, you know, from the crank center to top?

LOL, we had one for a while at the local co-op, it needed plenty of work and really limited utility so they sold it as-is for 60$ so some flipper bought it and has been trying to sell it on kijiji for 135$ without doing any work to it... still has the cotters in wrong so the cranks are out of phase.
