This might be a solution to the "peg-leg" effect of a solid axel, kinda spendy but it would do the job:helmet:

The axels could be machined for a proper fit to the wheels. Dual disk brakes on the back axel could be fitted, too, 1 on each side of the axel, would add about $90 or less to the axel. You wouldn't need hydralic brakes, dual mechanical brakes would haul this bike to a stop in no time.

Two examples of brakes, I think for the price difference the Airhart brakes are the best but the other set would stop you nearly as well

Installing a ready to fit trike kit sounds like the go, but your teacher might not approve if you "really" didnt make it, just steal the kits idea if thats the case -, dont make the wheels too far apart cause of flex , make SURE you use a steel frame... alloy explodes with MBs... a trike would do it quicker.
Little helps still help.

thanks for this any idea as where buy one?
