I can't really see the bottom bracket area - is there any reason why it can't be fitted with a triple chainset?


If you fitted one you'd probably only ever use the inner two. But with a chainline that long you could go to a quad.

Don't think so.  As long as I can find a front dérailleur that fits the seat tube.  Not sure it needs it, though.  Depends how many hills I'm planning on taking it up...

Oh wow! You could add a mattress to the back of one of those. Perfect for someone who wants to experience the dun run without the pain. As long as you could find a driver.

Nice set of wheels Charlotte. The saddle looks a bit 'comfy'.

On the bikefix site, I love the look of the Brox :thumbsup:

The eco-friendly "passion wagon" alternative to a Ford Transit with a mattress in the back.  Bit exposed though.

Perhaps we could sell one to Stan Collymore as his eco friendly dogging wagon?
