What the? Interesting to see what this is.
Steam electric hybrid. Suicide reostat controlled dc motor driven flywheel to the siderail on the back wheels. I am not a fan of sitting on a boiler. Small steam engine generator to charge the batteries.

The big picture. Something Victorian for the fork. Thick bricks are such a cushy ride a suspension is kind of redundant. King and Queen type saddle, horns for the sissy bar

They had a lot of suspension offerings in an alternate timeline about 100 years ago to choose from.

Funny story, I spent four months of 7 twelves disassembling and reassembling this stupid power plant and forgot the ccgt parts. I am just going to say that I am storing the steampunk part in my bicycle and call it a loophole.

I just had to double check the aerial to remember how that one worked

I think this has the possibility of being cool...

Cool looking plan.
The idea of tandem rear wheels has been discussed before and no one ever came up with a solution for making it turn. I'm looking forward to your ideas on that!

Interesting! Maybe you could include some details from the 1937 Glide-A-Cycle, make it a little more steam locomotive.

Seems ambitious at this point but seeing lots of cool interesting stuff here already (fork ad is amazing).
Looks like it will be a great thread..
If you build this in 2 months you should win. Now that looks like a comfy cruiser! Never seen a drive system like that on a bike.
I may have to wait until the winter to get to this. I am buried in work right now. There are worse things
