Thanks for the feedback. So far I just stop flinstone style. :lol: I've thought of a few different brake options, but haven't really tried anything yet. I'm thinking some type of suicide looking design (tall rat finkish look), with a plate to drag on the tread part of the tire. Pull (or push) the lever and create the drag effect. Not sure how well it would work. It would be for looks more than anything. I don't mind flinstoneing it. I tried the YouTube thing once with something else. Never could figure how to post the video. Guess I'll have to get the old lady to video my big butt riding this and try again. It's actually very comfortable and easy to ride. Except the metal seat is a little hard on the tail bone. A few friends have tried to ride it and they all get pretty wobbly trying to steer. I guess the long front end is a little tricky to get the hang of. I don't have any problems with it. Then again I built it specifically for me. If your 6' or taller you shouldn't have any problems. By the way I built it in about a week and a half. Not working at the moment. So this was my project.
