Trick bikes question

General
1

Hi all

Has anybody got any idea where I can find info about trick or funny bikes. I
have been messing about at a workshop on a bike that steered as normal at the
front end, but also swivelled about the seatpost as if it was double jointed.

Also bikes that steer in the opposite direction seems like fun to try.

Try some of Jack Wiley’s books. The following two are probably the most
applicable.

How to build unicycles and artistic bicycles. The complete Bicycle book (or
complete bicycling book, can’t remember exactly)

The one on unicycles and artistic bicycles has all sorts of wierd and
wonderful designs.

Re: Trick bikes question

Norman,

You can buy these complete but they are not easy to get, I believe they sell
them on www.unicycle.fr or give Peter at Fleet Cycles in Chilton a call or even
pop across to see him. He makes lots of odd bikes up. He is unfortunately not
fast but he relatively close to you. His number is 01388 721 797.
