1 week agotandem penny-farthing bike lets two riders pedal it at the same time
At its core, the custom ride is exactly what its name suggests: two identical high-wheel bicycles joined at their frames, facing opposite directions. Each side has its own large drive wheel, pedals fixed directly to that wheel, handlebars, and saddle. The result is a vehicle with no clear front or rear, and either rider can be the pilot, either direction can become forward motion, and steering inputs can come from both ends at once.
