I always think of these ones as "only halfway" as they still have that pain in the ass, the saddle. But of course it is a cheap way to upgrade the bike. Going all the way is a more costly conversion, but one of the great things I discovered with the trike was getting rid of the saddle and riding in a chair. No more need to harden the crutch for the season Just hop on and ride, mile after mile and no pain

One of the problems with rear brakes is that there is not enough weight bearing down on the tyres/road, so the rear wheel would just lock when the brake applied.What's the front brake issue? I would have thought that was the easy one, leave as is? Presumably sorting out a rear brake is trickier, presumably needs to be a disc brake on the axle ?
Fortunately I'm a Yorkshireman so as tight as a ducks arse and as hard as nails

Often likened to an Aberdonian with the generosity squeezed out.
