yet another inspiration for a build hubless swingbike.

[heartlandcruisers]

well I was combing the interwebs and I found this picture and automatically decided it would be a good build idea.
however, my funds have run kind of dry so I will not be doing a build but it would be cool.
a hub less swing bike.
using a hub less 27 inch wheel(or so it looks) with a 20 inch front wheel.
if the swing bike idea will not work maybe a custom frame similar to a swing bike.
here is the picture I found not quite sure how reliable it would be but the concept looks cool.

Wow...that is different! I wonder what the initial thoughts were that started that one? And does it have rear brakes? It does look pretty adaptable to being a big wheeled swinger.

yeah it looks like it wouldn't take a lot of modification to adapt to a swing bike but on the other hand I don't want to chop up a classic such as the swing bike so I think a custom frame would be better.
as far as rear brakes im not sure but there must be something in there for rear brakes I assume it works with the internals on the rims edges kind of like a caliper brake or maybe a disc brake style but as I said unsure exactly. maybe a roller brake
