After reading all these comments I have a question.

What would you do to design this to be used daily?

I am building a 4 seat version but with a bench back seat.

I have already been planning to add suspension to the bike and have bee trying to figure out the best way to set up the rear axle. I was thinking of using go kart parts for most of the build and also building the frame out of aluminum and using mountain bike style tires .

I read along here the placement of the rear axle is too far forward, please elaborate if you don't mind.

My reason for this car is that I am visually disabled, just enough I can not legally drive. This will be my transportation.

Your thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated.
hi! So I am in the very same situation that's how I came across this thread. Like you I am legally blind I am thinking of building one of these bikes as well. Since you like me are visually impaired I'd like to hear how you build went and possibly see some photos it wouldnt let me message you direct but if your still active on this forum reach out 7one5451two3six5
