A faux fixie style recumbent with a 12T 3speed torpedo front hub. Made to have a part count as low as possible so the steering pivot uses an idenical bottom bracket cartrige to de pedal asembly,24x1.75 wheels front and rear. Frame made from two halves with a fixed seat and bb position. Seat made from wood with square corners, false leather covered foam. In 2010 I made an adaptor for it to mount a 33cc gasoline engine with friction drive to the rear tire so it may be the first and only motopython. For transportation it can be held upsidedown by the bottom bar of the frame and it's meant to stay inverted upright on the tyres and top of the seat.
