So I'm building a Penny "Freakthing" Fakething in a build off over on Freakbikers UNITE!! Facebook page.

The main frame section is a foot scooter and the rear from a 16" suspension kids bike...

Half Penny is alive now and is rideable, but I still need to master riding this type of bike. Crashed her twice already and skinned my shin on the second crash.

Added a brace to the goose neck after one of the members on FB said it might be wise to have it.

The steps are made from a couple cheap second hand 19mm wrenches.
 
This might sound weird (Living in coastal FL with no hills), but you know what the first thing that came to mind with those 19mm wrench steps?

A really cool rear set pegs for a gravity racer!
