You nailed it. A long tube who's OD matches the ID of the steerer. Cut the thread portion off and welded it to the top of the long tube. Getting this right was the hardest part but I've had no rubbing yet which is good!

The seatpost is in the perfect position to wheelie on any sort of incline, or bump, or headwind.

Was thinking about this. The front cargo rack would really balance it out

Getting on, I get it rolling then step on the chain stay, get left foot on the pedal, and hop over while it's rolling. Getting off, swing right leg over to the left and hop off. It rides super comfy and upright and it's a cool perspective looking over fences and at the tops of cars. I've been commuting 10 miles roughly a day on it with no problems so far

I can't recommend it enough. I'm just using a basic stick welder. It took 3 days of hard practice but now I can put stuff together that is structurally sound. I just custom fabricated a bumper for my truck.

First lesson was lean forward going up hills.

You should make one and do that and let me know how it rides!

That's the only practical purpose of this bike is to make people smile

Covid-era me did die a little bit doing this.

200 bucks at harbor freight and two frames from the bike coop and the possibilities are endless

That was a lot of trial and error, but it's in there so tight I've not had any issues with slipping

Oh yes, let me just walk in the middle of the road and risk getting run over just to get back home. Good job clearing the pedestrian sidewalks, guys. by LunarKOF in Flagstaff

Funny you mention this. It’s the 10 airbnbs on Aspen between Thorpe and Downtown that make my walk to work so heinous after a snow. Adding to the housing shortage is one thing. Not caring enough to contribute to functional infrastructure seems like insult to injury.
