It was discovered that those soft rubbery "Pool Noodles" can be used to support a canopy, to protect the rider from rain and sun. The Pool Noodles can flex to allow the handlebars to turn. The other bikes have Cargo Platforms securely attached to the Head Tube, so the roll-cage could have been steel or aluminum if we went that route.

I built this for my competitor , BRAND X .

This bike is too cheap to put my own name on. But I wanted the bargain hunters to shut up. So I built it anyway. Only one unit has been built so far, and no one has asked how much money I want for it . But I would say "Under $500.00" if they do ask.
