:o Neat way to do the axles. 8) I bet ya could cut some of that top off, do some gearing changes and get up the small hills.

Only wonder if the spokes and rims will hold a person and the weight of the TD

Oh, crap ...

... now I've got some ideas that'll keep me up at night ... :thinking: ... (like I didn't already have enough ...)!

I've ridden a couple of front-drive recumbents ... they've got gears ... but I doubt the typical FD gearsets would be sufficient for hauling that thing up any decent type of grade. Looks like a fun challenge, though ...

Thanks for posting it, Greg ... I think ... :twisted:

CHEERS!
