The fork crown looks positively dangerous if you fall on it.

isn't that one a little short on seats to be a tandem?

Well just goes to show how un observant l can be, l didn't look at the op closely enough to see that it is indeed a tandem. Get back in your box "woodbutcher" !isn't that one a little short on seats to be a tandem?

LOL, Delighted i am not the only one,when my wife shown me the bike on gumtree all i said was not really interested in a small wheeled folding bike. When it was pointed out to me it was a tandem i could hardly credit it and still find it hard to work out how the rear crankset and wheel work?

@davidphilips It looks single speed, with the rear set of pedals connected directly to the hub or freewheel. A bit like an early Trailgator?

Thanks DC, Thats perhaps a bit like a wheel on a unicycle? As you noticed its a single speed and would be very low geared. So for that reason i am out as they say in Dragons den i would be interested in a tandem as i will loose the use of my arm for a few months after an operation but sadly this one would not suit a club run.
Paul see what you mean if seated solo on the back it would be very ligth at the front and very unstable.
