I rebuilt my Single Speed
 
Hey, I use to use this frame for trials (now i have a trials specific bike if you want to see that also), but i did everything myself on this bike besides the front wheel. i laced the rear wheel myself with my own calculations and design (even though people have done this design before)

Interesting idea to put your own name 'coppellestereo' on the 'tubes. This should make identifing it easier.

whats up with both levers on the same side? i have trials riding experience but have never seen anyone do that... whats it good for?

hey, thanks for the comments, yeah, i think it looks pretty sweet with 'CoppellStereo" on the downtube.

I have 2 levers on the same side since I have some physical problems with my left hand. i wouldnt be able to squeeze the left lever, so i did some thinking and ended up with them both on the same side, and it works awesome too.

trials riding is just all around fun to do, jumping up and off things and stuff like that

here is a new video I made a few days ago if you want to see some trials riding (keep in mind we are beginners)

Here's a lever solution you might find useful.

Dual brake lever

I like the video. Nicely done; good choice of music, especially when going into the bloopers section. A few lighting problems, shooting into the sun, etc.; could also improve with a steadier cam, but fun to see. Thanks for sharing.
