Question Improved Cycletruck

Has anyone seen a bike like this?
I am looking to place my foot flat on the ground without tilting the bike at all. When fully loaded a cycle truck is difficult to balance.

The rear tire needs to be smaller just to use a motorcycle tire. it could be a 17" rim tire. but no wider than 3 inches.....



crank forward cycletruck


how to place the crank

Search for “semi-recumbent” and you’ll get a number of examples of that type of geometry, but I haven’t seen any that are designed as truck bikes.
