Homebuilt Giro 20 clone

I'm new to this site , thought I'd post my homebuilt on here . Its based on the giro 20 but have been modifying it over the years . Dont have pics of the build but did it over one boring winter up here in the north west Canada. First try I made my own seat but that wasnt terribly comfortable especially without rear suspension. Made this last one from an obus forme seat pad with a couple springs under the backrest to make the bumps a little less harsh. I made all the parts but cheated a little and got a professional welder to tig weld it , been holding up great for 3 or 4 yrs now

 

Thanks for the welcome . Downunder kinda refers to my first few experiences on recumbents . Being down and under them when the front wheel gets caught up an I wipe out . Trying to keep that at a minimum lately but once in awhile still happens . Recumbents are few an far between around here , gets lot of attention .
