just a thought: the seat is connected to
the middel section, so it in control of your back. The front is
as usual controlled by your feet. But who or what is looking of
the rear wheel?
Would it be possible, to connect the seat
to the rear and have your feet on the front? That way, you're
still in control of the wheels and the middle section has to
follow either side.
