Hi. I would think the wheel would angle to the right as the axle worked it 's way up the slot. Perhaps the thinking is that the disk brake will hold the wheel in place, but that would mean an almost constant drag on the wh eel. I would love to hear from the builder as to why they choose to constr uct this.
Anybody ells notice how high the Bottom bracket is? I wonder if this tande m will be an off road bike? This should be an interesting topic.
