I do not see why you could not build a fully compatible recubent on this
position??!



A lot of home builders start out cobbling together recumbents from donor
bikes exactly as you suggest. It gets cheaper if your donor bikes are free
with damaged frames or extremely cheap from, say, a police auction or
thrift store.

The other side of the coin is the cost of the welding and/or braising
gear. And the time investment.


Have tried done this. Have an excellent pole with suspension and everything My
suspension is rubber donuts from car suspensions. Unfortunately I cannot get my
balls up for this almost finished bike and I must buy a $90.00 bmx.

maintaining his interest in life and conversation, because they have only
harmed or hindered that which was precious to him. Thank you.
