Alex Calothis built this recumbent from a couple of old bikes salvaged from the tip and some mild steel tubing. The rear fork is from a Saracen AWOL with an elastomer damper. The seat is laminated out of two sheets of 4mm ply glued up on a frame, and is suprisingly comfortable - much better than an upright bike! The front wheel drive system works well and uses a couple of idler pulleys from McMaster-Carr. The turning angle is limited but this is only a problem at very low speeds. With the small front wheel the bike is a little too low geared and could have therefore done with a bigger chain ring. The whole thing was welded using a small arc welder. For more on this bike check Alex's web site. |

Prolific bicycle tinkerer Hezi Ismach, of Israel, built this prone bicycle. Hezi says you've got to be careful not to fall asleep while riding this comfortable bike. |
This conventional looking mountain bike is actually pretty unique. It was built from Easton aluminium hockey sticks by Adam Joanisse of Sudbury, Ontario! This 12" frame weighs 3 lbs. |
