Plans are to build it up as cheaply as possible, so far I’ve had to buy 2x new seatposts and a shim for the stoker stem. Sure there will be a few more bits but I’m hoping I will already have most of stuff in the parts bin to get this assembled.
I have a set of HS33 that I’d like to use, it means I’ll lose the right hand double cable for front brake / drum brake, but I might give the stoker the operation of the drum or is that ill advised? Have seen tandems set up this way in the past.
Oooo exciting frame!
When you're in a position that you need the drum brake, your hands are already full of brake lever. Hopefully you can trust your stoker to control it, they do trust you to control the rest... ;)
Recently purchased this off Rod Saetan:

Have since managed to get both seatposts free.
