Here are some photos of my rebuild I had done. My frame had broke and got it replaced. After a lot of work and getting new parts because of a different year of the frame, it done. Over $200 to get it back up and running. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

That is the craziest set of handlebars I've ever seen.

I am car free so I like to have many hand positions. How much it weighs, well with all 4 panniers and back box, way over 100 pounds, add the trailer, 125+.

That is sweet. Look out Pee-wee, here comes the geek-cycle!!

How do you use the handlebars that are pointing right at you? Ever impale yourself on them?

I hang my battery and use them for slow riding, when my back needs to be straight.
