pics of how you attached the top and bottom wheels to the frame. Did
you use bearing holders? The bottom wheel is a regular 20" bike wheel
right? I bet it looks great with a yellow frame!Thanks

I'll have to go and find up how the setup works on the photo gallerys
here. When I do I'll snap some pix and post them.
At the upper wheel I used main cap holders. Because I didn't think the
dinky 6mm bolts could take the load I bolted a bracket over it to hold
the upper and lower frame together. I have oval slots for the center
axle and at the bottom dropout I have a backwards tensioner. Screws to
push the axle up instead of pulling like a chain tensioner. The pressure
needed to keep the tires from slipping tend to spread the wheels apart.
