This tandem looks wonderful but I have never found twin lateral tandems to be very satisfactory. I would opt for a direct lateral or marathon type frame design. As I have come in for some criticism of late I will quote Tony Oliver who I rode a tandem and tandem-trike with. " To put the record straight, I do not consider twin lateral tubes worthy of consideration on a quality tandem". Page 82 Touring Bikes A practical Guide.
