Nope nope nope. And with ‘suspension’ so that vise-grip seatpost clamp is getting wangled about throughout the ride. Shocking.

One of the first bikes that I “built” as a kid was taking an adult-sized 3 speed and outfitting it with ape hangers, a banana seat and 20” wheels subbed in for the proper bits. I had no idea about torque and so the bike was full of rounded bolts and nuts which required me to always carry a visegrip, clamped in the same position as above. It regularly flew off.
