I dig it... but what will you do to off set the braking inertia in wheelie mode? You would HAVE to grab the bars to stop with any safety.
Please be careful on that thing... stay away from traffic.
Parking lots and deserted roads are one thing... dodging cars is another.
And a resounding YES to BRAKES!
keep posting please
good luck BBB

Ok guys, don't worry about me, I know my limits,and approach them carefully. I live out in the boonies, and for now, I would never ride this thing in the presence of other traffic.
I 've been practicing in the 10mph range, don't wanna drive it any faster than I care to crash LOL. I also wear my leather motorcycle gear and boots to minimise any possible abrasions ect.
I'm gonna add brake posts to the driven wheel forks for hand brakes.

Later, Wayne
