What a frustrating article, they say its missing a key component but doesn't say what.
- arpfaust 7y agoA bar between the axes of the pedals and the rear wheel ;)
- Jarwain 7y agoEven the artist just says "an important part of its frame". If I had to guess, it's a bar connecting the back wheel's harness-thing with the gear to maintain a consistent distance. If someone sat on that, I think the wheels would flex out, the chain come loose, etc.
- davidw 7y agoThe chainstays are missing in the first image.
- ogre_codes 7y agoIt's the Chainstays. You need two bars connecting the bottom bracket to the rear hub or the rear wheel is extremely unstable. Most modern bikes are fundamentally 2 triangles joined at the base.
- InitialLastName 7y agoThere's no chain stay, to complete the rear triangle.
