The pin goes in the fork when in swing mode.

The spring was extended for ride geometry.

The pin that holds the rear steering in check.

Band brake and freewheel. The wheelset uses 12 gauge spokes.

In swing mode.

Very cool! Dig the small wheels with the heavy gauge spokes. The paint, resting pin placement, knobby tires, giant apes; lots to like about this one!

Really happy you were able to check and adjust the design to get this finished. Well done!

Crazy contraption. Nicely executed.

Very unusual. Looks like it should be part of a high wire act in the circus! Looks like fun.
