I want it, but the paint...

Cannondale welds are so nice it's crying out for one of those double tone metallics, name escapes me, but done on Kleins.

Why not? Someone can make it slave

It’s an ugly duckling. Complete parts swap + some elbow grease and you’ll become a forum hero.

How about this?

There's a chain of chain on there: fuck lubing that.

Why aren't the cranks reversed?

And why does the stoker control the rear drum brake?

why does the stoker control the rear drum brake?

Because the captain has his hands full with the other two brakes. Giving the stoker something to do on the descents is common practice.

Why aren't the cranks reversed?

The crank phase is normal, anything else would be unusual but not unheard of.

I meant why isn't the triple at the stoker's bb.

The longer chain provides smoother running especially when cross-chained, spreading wear over twice as much chain provides longer intervals between replacement, the shorter front dérailleur cable keeps the front shifting in adjustment for longer, having the FD right under the person controlling it gives better feedback for shifting and trimming.
