This is Hooch's Fault!!

Ok Hooch and I were chatting last night in the Chat room. He got talking about a crazy Wagon Wheel bike. So I got thinking I have this huge steel rim from an old wooden wagon wheel. Well one thing led to another and I thought on it all day. This is my concept. Ladies frame on the front, generic whatever 10 spd on the back, use the bottom bracket from the ladies as is all set up as a semi recumbent bike and you sit in the hoop.

I've always thought it would be neat to see a bike where you sit inside the frame.
Get busy!

ok first of all. I myself do not listen to the lil voices inside my head..... and you shouldnt either hahaha
but I think it would be a cool project

Aaron,I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one to get drawn into to Hooch's world of intrigue! :mrgreen: Bike looks pretty wild! Any way you could make the big wheel spin as you ride it? Kinda like a monocycle with training wheels! :lol:

haha, cool idea.... yet, it reminds me of that vehicle that Mr. Garrison created on South Park, the "IT". man, I'm glad I got rid of my TV.

Tiki I'm afraid just the rim must weigh near 50 pounds alone. This may never get done but every time I see that rim I'm gonna think of it. :wink: (Note to self) look for used welder.
