Posting Vids of my SpinCycle

[Gerald_G]

I've uploaded a couple of videos to U-tube showing my fresh spincycle build.

I thought you might be interested in seeing how my bolt on/off one wheeled back end works.

Paint, refinement, and seat enhancement still to come....

Too bad I can't watch 'em. :(
I'd settle for some pics, though.

No worries. Here's some pics.

Here's what it looks like with the single rear wheel modification...

And a couple of detail pics on the single rear wheel.

Last pic of rear wheel bolted off.

The back section bolts on and off, allowing for multiple configurations for the rear wheels. I also intend to build a back half with 2 straight wheels (8" maybe) so it can be a non-spin cycle as well.

Like I said above, paint and refinements still to come.

Very kool, Gerald! Thanx for posting those for us poor folks still living in the dark ages!

How's it ride in "bike mode"?

It's pretty scary actually. Each time you pedal, you induce turn tothe wheel a little, and wobble along. Also without any fender yet, I am missing a bit of skin on the inside of my thigh.
