Jack-Richter (Dec 27, 2012 at 16:31)

I've seen a tandem v-10 in real life its so sick

terashred (Dec 27, 2012 at 16:39)

i just want to know what sort of contraptions the riders of this bike would be carrying in a bob trailer fission powered tandem mustache groomer is my best guess

Matt-W (Dec 27, 2012 at 16:47) (Below Threshold)

> still a better sport than 4x

mph51 (Dec 27, 2012 at 22:14)

Especially when your rocking Vbrakes in the rear.

Ollie-J (Dec 27, 2012 at 23:49)

A guy and his wife race a tandem in the local races here, it's wild www.pinkbike.com/photo/8635704

EricThiessen (Dec 28, 2012 at 15:36)

Ollie-J (Dec 28, 2012 at 20:51)

teamfyr (Dec 27, 2012 at 5:31)

Love the dual crown fork!

GoRideYoBike (Dec 27, 2012 at 9:33)

Guy in the back thinks he is a part of the ride; is only dead weight helping the front guy to whip the back end out

exnihilo (Dec 27, 2012 at 13:51)

Let's see that double superman. Oh wait, on other hand, that might look extremely innapropriate. Skip it.

reckless-rider (Sep 3, 2012 at 1:00)
