Well, the mods are finally done. After the first handle bar extension broke (and because it said “IGWHEEL” instead of “BIGWHEEL” after assembly), Todd made a new one, plus a bunch of other mods. We now have a Big Wheel ready for racing, complete with extended “BIGWHEEL” handles for pedaling clearance, a headset reinforced with bearings, plastic blocks in the front wheel replaced with metal, a new tube for the fork, a “Remove Before Flight” flag, a raised seat (reams of paper), and yes—a carbon fiber-wrapped fork. This could be one of the most expensive Big Wheels in the world, made for free. Get excited, the time trials begin next week.
