Very cool indeed, always wanted to try one of these, and a unicycle. One point of criticism, aren’t the handles way too high? :-S

I saw a DIY recumbent bike once in Mother Earth News of all places once. I think it had its handlebars positioned way differently, but a quick search on google says that this configuration is far from unusual.

Like the wallpaper Orange. :D

People have been doing that particular configuration for ages… early to mid 80′s at least. It always blows me away that stuff like this get’s posted as if it’s new.

There should be some other projects on the internet that are even easier to construct. In fact, the smart ones don’t even bother cutting up the BMX frame and just use bigger front rings to drive the small rear wheel.

I have a unicycle and it is soooo much fun.

I submitted this a while back, but again, DIY recumbent tricycle-

Cruz bike was making kits until a year or two ago when they began manufacturing their own bikes. Most of the homemade jobs have trouble with high center of gravity, and poor seat design. There is something to be said however for making somethign yourself that actually works.

strong post. to be truthful i am not sure i understood it completely. but, wanted to stop inand comment anyway. are you a freelance writer by vocation?, because your writing is really good.
