Nice bicycle huh... are you using this one for cycling training? I think this bicycle is a nice bike for touring.

They were only outside, at the testing ground. I spoke to an old friend whohappened to be manning that booth and she told me that their bikes areexclusively for export. They are manufactured by 安可自行車有限公司.

Thanks for that link. I thought I had covered Taipei show quite well…never noticed that booth at all! I wondered about the load-bearing capacities of the tubes from a frame-building POV…some cool engineering.

I got to ride a production long john bike at the Taipei Bicycle Show and itwas really easy to ride. One of the guys at the booth did me a favor and satin the loading part so I could test how well it works when weighted.Remarkably easy to ride. From what I've seen a lot of the long john bikesare homemade gigs or really old, rather than new production bikes.There is a big gallery of them over athttp://www.longjohn.org/galerie/galerie_en.html

The Big Stuff Transport photo is an interesting solution to a transportation problem. You 'normally' see a trailing solution to carrying heavy loads. Examples of this recently posted at streetsblog.net photo gallery of normal bikes from around the globe. 'Normal' is only ever relative i guess you can say, relative to what you need to get done, to the time and the place...something non-cyclists are not as tuned in to.
