It’s still at Bilenky, but it’ll soon be making its way across the country to Los Angeles!
Thought I’d throw in the original design mock-up I sent to Bilenky. It’s come a long way

Wow! Classy ride Russ.
I suppose it might be the small front wheel that makes it seem big, but did they give you an 8″ brake rotor up front? Guess you’ll need to be stopping quite a bit of weight so that’d make sense.

WOW that’s such a sweet ride! Dude, you gotta promise to take me on a ride in the front….hehe

Pretty slick!

That bike is so badass…I am SO looking forward to the full run-down.
What are your cargo plans with that front carrier? Will those tubes accept some sort of platform or cargo box?

Hate… you… so… much…

Looks like it won’t be shipping for a few more days….we’re swapping out the rack for one that curves slightly upwards on the side….as it looks now, if I put a big pelican case on the front it will bottom out on the headset looking thing on the fork….ack….i’m not good at waiting…

No shocks in the front, huh? How about some spinners?
That would be so much fun to ride on the front.
The bike looks GREAT!!

The cargo bike looks like it shares a similar frame design to Bilenky’s tandem semi-recumbent, the Viewpoint….if that’s so, it should have no problem carrying some good size cargo…
RL, it’s $5 per ride

Shay! I wish I were, but I’m going to the GWBR (Great Western Bike Rally) that weekend! Sorry, we booked it before you guys announced the date.
Dang, it was so much fun last year and that’s how I met the bikecommuters.com crew.

It looks like the front disk brake is on the righthand side. Is that to address the wheel-ejection issue with front disk brakes? Some other reason?

hmm….not quite sure about the front disc brakes….this is actually going to be my first bike with disc brakes so it’ll be all new to me
