this is dedicated to Honest Abe, Cisco and of course Kenny P. Also to all the bike FREAKS. All I need to do is finish the sumo go-ped/scooter. I'll keep everyone updated on both rollers :mrgreen:

Nice but wont that be hard to ride if the seats so far back?
 
seat location...

I havent completely figured out the layout. The seat will most likely be a custom banana type but a bit more forward. Plus I'm going to have the beach style handle bars that will come back about 12"-16"...similar to Honest Abe's cruzer.

Thanks for all the input anymore suggestions or comments would be great.

cheers
 
Widen up the frame 2 fit a 26x3 inch tire on it ha same with front That be swweeet
 
If you can, try to (Pretend) ride it while your building it. I set up blocks of wood to find the seat height. I set the cranks up and pedaled while holding the bars in my hands. Don't base your geometry on other rides. I am 6'1" so she is pretty long. Make it fit you.
 
Not trying to Bogart your thread but here was my original chop. After mocking it up, she sat for months while I scratched my head. I actually made it shorter.
