Just dreaming here about a new tandem that would be more portable than the Greenspeed we now enjoy.
It's a great ride but a chore to lug around and even more difficult to ship or fly. After a recent
tour that involved some really bad pavement (and wanting to do a little dirt road riding), I was
wondering how a Pantour disk hub might work on a conventional two-wheeled recumbent tandem--I'm
thinking the REAR wheel here. Whatever tandem we get will have a suspension front fork. Right now,
Pantour only makes 36 hole hubs. Could one of these be used to build up an acceptably strong tandem
wheel? My wife/stoker weighs only about 100 lbs., and we might carry 60 lbs. or so of gear. What do
you think? Currently, I'm dreaming of an Organic Engines Daisy Mayhem.
