Look Ma, No Hands!
These damn seat posts made this simple "refurbish" a nightmare. Twisted/broke the original seat posts with a new $10 pipe wrench I bought just for the job. Then scarred up the frame a little trying an air chisel. Then ordered & waited for delivery of an $8 drill that wouldn't work. Then ordered & waited for a $15 drill that worked TOO good & now I have a lighter (ie: FASTER) tandem. Good thing I only paid $45 for this bike & there are a million of them out there. Plus it adds authenticity to the "rat rod" look...lol.
The good news is the old posts are drilled down about 5" so I have room to put the replacements in now & finish this thing up so I can ride already

If the shipping weren't a killer I'd maybe take that offer...lol. But I actually like the non deluxe. Cleaner look with no cables & the deluxe have holes in the frame for the shifters. I just run a single coaster brake with no front brake in mine. Plenty of stopping power for how we ride it
