Swing bike test rides

Posted: December 10, 2011 in Uncategorized

Tim’s swing bike is just about done.

I built it up without paint and took it for a few test rides.

The bike is weird to ride but it is fun and feels both more stable then I expected. With this bike I can swing the top tube when I want but also ride a straight line with no trouble. The bike is not normal but it rides better then I expected. I can even ride no hands.

For the test ride i used only a rear derailleur and front brake but after paint the bike will get a full group.

I also shot a video, the lighting was very bad…

    Awesome! My old swing bike was a bit scary to ride no handed, glad this one is smooth. Can’t wait to try it.
