Found this very tempting bicycle frame... who's gonna do it?

a very old design, a penny farthing, keep as much weight over the rear wheel cause a hard brake will see you kissing the bitumin
 
On second look I see only rear brake and a fixed crank so slowing is done by resistance pedaling, personally I would leave as is as a fun pedal only or very low power assist, maybe a rear hub with regen would work
 
Justin recently converted a full size penny farthing into an ebike, in fact i think Grin technologies did a small production run

Fine for those who happen to be expert with a unicycle anyway. But if you ask me, your orthopedic surgeon will love billing you.
 
My father was an old classic bikes user. It's not like I don't find those bikes supercool. ..
But....electric? I do not find it tempting at all.
 
if somebody wants similar bike than I know who makes similar custom ebikes for good prices.
