What make bike was this? 'Bent?

Tenex said:

Earlier saw a woman cycling a 'bent or something very similar with a child aboard.

The thing that struck me most was, from the fleeting glance, the woman on the back seemed to be
pedalling in a pretty upright posture, whereas the child (5/6 y.o.) was mounted forward and
pedalling the set in front. Or am I just confused and they all look like this (never seen one in
the flesh).

Anyone have an idea? Any pictures anywhere?

Sounds like a Hase Pino. Run a google search for pictures. I think they cost a little over
2000 pounds.

I'm sure that was it. The front pedals (and child) were much higher than in that picture but that
was the layout.

Nice price...

I'm quite surprised it fits children. I remember Orbit trying to sell one for a grand!

Strikes me as odd. on a normal tandem the one in charge is the one that'll hit things first. On many
occaisions I've been kakking myself yet the stoker has been thinking its great.

Very impressive machine, btw, must be fun.

How I got my Pino, by Tim Hall aged 42 and a bit.

A few years back we got 500 quid following one of those building society merger things.

Next day spent 500 quid on a s/h Dawes tandem.

This is very nice and we did more and more cycling, joined the Tandem Club too.

However Mrs. Hall has a tender bum and despite suspension seat posts, fiddling with bar height and
so on, can't get comfortable and is Unhappy. This is a Bad Thing and Something Must Be Done.

Mrs. Hall then sees an advert for a Pino in one of my comics. We must have one she commands. I
point out the price but she puts her foot down with a firm hand and who am I to argue, so the
deed is done.
