That's a fantastic build, and it's way more of a machining project than a fabrication project. My hat's off. It looks like he took a few liberties with the bike's geometry, perhaps predicated on things we've learned since then, or to make it better fit himself. Chalo |

Hmmm... looking at the status updates, I wonder whether it's the physical specimen he was copying that doesn't quite match the drawing. Whatever the case, this is a project that can arise only from a combination of skill and passion. Chalo |
