I'm not sure how I'd go about doing that ; it might be beyond my capabilities.
Getting the lower bars much longer is tricky with the 45 degrees of triangulation and that offset on the driveshaft hoop unless I drop them way down below the frame. Having said that, even without worrying about the notch the absolute longest I can get with the bars right out by the wheel and the centers clear of the driveshaft is 24" long on the bottom. i dont know if that's long enough or not.
Maybe that parallel 4 is the wiser choice after all? I just want something with a decent ride and predictable handling; Im not building a race car but on the other hand i dont want to throw so mething together.
