I am new to the forums a friend shot me a link to the site, so this is kinda three posts wrapped into one.

1) HI!
2) its for sale (best offer - will ship lower 48)
3) it is an artistic fun bike that i think deserves to be stored in the gallery
ok, its not a schwinn or vintage anything but it is of the "rat" style kinda...

So without further adue, this is a sakura mustang (british) complete with on board electrics with 36V - 200W hub motor. will go around 20MPH unassisted for 2 hours-ish then the battery dies and you have to peddle home. It is a one speed and can be very difficult to peddle. It had a lot of rust on it when I got it, and was a complete mess electriclly. about 48 man hours later and she is good as new.

yes the lights run off the same battery for the motor so no extra AA's but will reduce ride time at night.
 
i have done extra work since those pics, realigned the crank, re aligned front wheel, tightened the brakes. those were post initial benching the rest came after the test drive. there is still cracked plastic and that rusted chain but it is still a blast to ride and turn heads.
