This thing is beautiful. Good on you sir! great ideas!
Every scrape, every bump, every little spot of rust you cringe at I glorify and ride proud. Because at the end of the day, it's another story, another badge, and another song to be sung.

@vanlow,
i use a 1,5 milimeter sheet of metal

thanks 4bob :wink:

@bikebuilder,
the shift light is not fonctionnal and i drop the spoked sprocket to make a 3 speed sprocket gearbox



some progress:
-sealants are finished
-the first coat of paint is placed, it will remain gloss
Image

otherwise there is no speed ......
I drop the spoked sprocket
and I begins manufacturing a gearbox in the crank!
