It's far from what I started with, an early 60's Huffy Daisey Tandem. Also quite different from what I envisioned on the build that never got finished, Harlequin Deuce, which used a 70's Columbia Twosome. But after a frame swap and a new direction, it's went from a hopping clown parade bike, to a modified burrito with a few unusual ingredients.
Here's what I started with...
So after many drawings and discussions here. (the build thread) I had a plan and started cutting and welding. Faux weathered paint and many bits of copper and brass later I now have a bike that makes people smile and is a fun ride.
There are a few novelties here, Chain drive steering, an exhaust that is a sound tube for a Bluetooth speaker and a rear bumper spur.
She rides nice, at approx 89 gear inches, it's easy to cruise but stout enough that your not pedaling like crazy to get nowhere. Steering gearing is 1 to 1 so it steers feather light without overkill, and the horn works as well.
