Some old builds

[Sparky Sharky]

The first chopper was a mini, and rode smoothly
The next one was a bit more and rode OK, but needed some effort

Reminds me of the tank slapper that helped me brake my poor little virgin (adult unfortunately) front teeth back somewhere at the end of the 60's!

Here are Timmy and Tanner.
They are fast on those things.View attachment 196670View attachment 196671

Haha little rippers! T n T remind me of my Lil H-Bomb.

It goes so fast, he already outgrew the Raleigh after one day at the track

there was a Raleigh just like that in the pile of parts picked up this weekend.
I am considering chopping the front off the tandem tag-along and adding the front
of the Raleigh to it to make a triple.
Looks to be the right size and quality of build to fit.

Hi Matti,
This pic is for you.
Another idea how to use the tandem tagalong.
I'm seeing a kid sized triple, maybe. Like I need another bike project.
Any feedback ?

With the bottom bracket spaced the same as the tagalong, the wheelbase
would be about 72", the same as the RedGoose tandem.

My wife won't let me hack at the tag along. I think a three up tandem would SLAY! Absolutely freakin awesome

Thanks for the input.
I will put that build on the list.
I am very blessed when it comes to "hacking" bikes up.
My wife says, "Oh so your riding your little red bike again. Come and look at the new flowers
I just planted".

Also, all these bikes were free or cheap.
I think I paid $15. for the tandem tagalong. About 1 year ago.
Time is my investment.

I'll try to keep a log and post it when started.
