That thing is awesome! You'll have to give us the scoop on riding it! Have you been riding it off road? Seems like it would be big fun for the kids.

If the position of that pic is actual, you guy's might want to contact Left Hand Brewing. Ooops, just noticed the date wasn't backwards - ok, so send them promo for one of the lefty versions.

Here in Asheville things are strating to "warm-up" towards urban ridding with City Council having a meeting tomorrow for a proposal to open up over 150 miles of bike lanes.........this is just the begining, more to come.

That's a tricked out look ride. How's the steering? Does turn to the right easily or does it require a larger turning radius?

Thanks man! It is a trip to ride. There is a "learning curve" associated with it but once you learn to lean with the bike depending on the load it puts a smile on your face..........as far as the turning radius, we have been playing around with the hack wheel position to optimize the feel and so far the "sweet spot" seems to be just a speck in front of the drive axle if you are using the same size wheels all around. On another sidecar bike we've built the hack wheel is smaller (16") and carves best behind the drive wheel.

Just cause you asked...................about $600 for a custom frame, depending on the tubeset. Base price would be a "Versus" True Temper steel set with horizontal drop-outs. Disk or V-brakes are your choice. Get in touch via our website for more info.........gabe
