Biking With Kids

I found this tandem on craigslist for $75.

I’m planning to to fix it up and use it to tow my kids around.
It has a small dent in the frame, a broken idler pulley with a bent bracket and a pretty rusty chain, but all in all I think it was a pretty good deal!

So far I haven’t found much on the internet about this make/model bike. If you know anything about these bikes please send me an email.

I found this article about building a kids recumbent bicycle on instructables.com.

If you haven’t checked out instructables.com, you should.  Instructables has some really interesting bicycle projects and it’s great to see what you can do with some good used bicycle parts.

I’m planning to build a tandem bicycle that has the stoker in front (which will be one of my kids).  I will be posting more about the tandem build soon.
