Yep.
It was a fun build from a couple of years ago, and it truly is a BEAST in many senses.
Front is a vintage Steyr Clubman.
Rear is a Mongoose Massif 20x4.25
It is a little flexy, and I think I ended up with some alignment issues causing a bit of a wobble when descending loaded/pulling.
If I do it again, there will be changes, but I haven't quite decided what. I'm not as excited about the small-fat rear end as I was when the idea popped into my mind, and don't really like the wide Q-Factor cranks.
Personally I don't use the "cargo" option as much as I had originally expected, and mainly use it for towing.
I may try something a little different as a tow vehicle. I've been thinking about an upright trike as a "tractor".
