I posted this before looking for topics, but it kinda ended up being online support for general bicycle troubles.

Which is a good thing! Ask your questions about bicycles that are currently on your mind and we all try to help.

Pre-Emptively calling in @dallasw and @Kissmydadonthelips for their knowledge.

    It's a terrible design. Far more cost and complexity and dramatically less safe. Handcycles are great adaptive tech, but anyone with normal leg function should just ride a standard foot pedaled diamond frame or recumbent. I cant stress how awful that design is. Everyone in the video has atrocious posture and position on the bike and would generate far more power from legs alone with a proper fit. The fork offset on that bike looks like what happens when the highschool kid assembles a bike in walmart.
