Great idea but will it work? Because doesn't all your weight have to be
on the saddle. The suspension will act as if there is no weight on
saddle and make you wobble-ride or fall off unless your great at
uniing!!




Well, yes, there were a lot of problems with that design. My new system
(which i'll probably get around to making sometime soon) has no flaws. I
mean, I feel close minded and arogant to say that, but it seriously has
no flaws at this time. When i think something could be wrong, its not
possible.

aha. the problem with that is the wheel will wind up, and not give
suspension. sorta like a roll of paper, and when you hold the inside end
(when rolled), you can move the outside, and wind it in a lot, until its
packed together.

I think you can do it as you plan, and probably for the $50. Here is my
version and it did not cost very much and I just cut and welded until it
looked right. I really like "HUGO'S+ Idea about the chain and swingarms
and would like to try making that!

Yes this is most cool. I thought my MUNI's were cool and worked but the
floating wheel is really the correct method of suspension.

Hugo I am inclined to put the drive on one side to the wheel and
jack shaft it at the pivot point to time the pedals correctly. This is
what I see on your drawing. Strenth for hopping is my concern with a
split pedal shaft.

Unibikeling the idea of the floating wheel is genious.

Now I need input from the rest of the community to really make it
the best of all your ideas and post photos of the resulting contraption.
Hope it's not one of these!

lobbybopster. That is awesome. I want to buy a 24 incher. Could you
make another? Roughly what would be the price?
