[net.bicycle] Tandem Kid-Back Conversion

rathman@hou2g.UUCP (P.RATHMAN) (05/02/85)

I am interested in buying a kid-back conversion kit for my tandem
(i.e.  a kit to add a crankset that attaches part way up the rear
seat tube so a small child can reach the pedals).  I have a Gitane
Tandem Sport men's/men's 23"/21" tandem with a TA triple crankset
(cross-over).  There are twin laterals running from the head tube
to the rear dropouts that may interfere with mounting some models
of kid-back kits.  If anyone has a used kit to sell please send me
mail (or phone).  I would also be interested in hearing from anyone
with experience  in using a tandem with their child or information
on sources and prices of new kits.  TIA.
