Step 21Customize the backrest with your electronics
The backrest on the Choprical Fish is a sophisticated electronics hub that includes 3 repackaged elements: a Rolls MX56c 4-Channel mixer, a Shure Wireless Mic, and a Shure Wireless transmitter for bike-to-bike surround sound while cruising.
The actual backrest surface is slightly curved, for lumbar support. The acryllic reveals the circuit boards behind it for a decorative look. During a performance, I'm able to plug a guitarist into the bike, hand a wired microphone to a backup vocalist, click a track on the iPod, and lay down lyrics over it using the wireless mic . The guitarist, backup singer, and I can all set our levels using the knobs of the mixer.
On my first soul cycle I used a two channel mixer. It allowed me toperform over the iPod perform over the iPod, but I didn't have the ability to bring in other performers.
If you do go through the trouble of purchasing expensive items like wireless microphones, don't stuff them in a bag somewhere. Design your bike so you'll be able to access them while cruising / performing.
