How I load it up...




Some marine netting to make a soft sling.

Nice! I can't believe all the different types of bikes! I know most here have seen all there is. But I'm still discovering this stuff. It's all great. I like your banner.

That's very cool. Can you give us a component list and the frame details?

Thanks, I was looking for a cool new background. I love this bike and the A.N.T version.

I hate to "me too", but damn that bike is ill. How's the handling?

I showed it to my wife, who is a photographer. She didn't seem so interested in trying one out, which was a bit disappointing but probably a good thing for our bank account.

Pretty kewl.
So how does she handle with that funky steering and the weight on the front?
It's like a diamond/recumbent frankenstein!

That's pretty neat-o. I've never seen a bike like that.
