I love this. Is that a B17 saddle? Can I bug you for what kind of pack that is behind seat? And what kind of handlebars? they look like Raleigh, I still have my grandparents Raleigh 3 speeds in a garage in Maine. your tires look a bit thicker than mine, I may have to do this too. I took a 360 off my bike on the firdt ride in my neighborhood! Not used to a road bike's thin tires and narrow handlebars on a New orleans bit of sunken concrete pavement- got the tire caught and well anyway bike ok rider ok, crowd of people were sort of amazed at the whole thing!

Any I love this set up! I'll go this way if my experiment is not enough, I've tinker built a couple aluminum clamps that fasten on to handlebars and have a 12" riser post that bends out into a handlebar, one on each side of stem - I actually bought a tube break (bender) to get them right. I made this for a friend bc I have a small machine shop behind my house - but now I get to try them myself. This will be delicious after a few hundred hours of prototyping.
