Default Build number three

This is my latest effort

Features include home made 40 tooth rear sprocket, a BMX chain, no tensioner, and high pressure tires.

The tires are rated for 90psi, running them at 75psi.

The 40 tooth sprocket used to be on the chain ring!

Its just a cheap old mountain bike fitted with 27" wheels.

vmax as of yesterday was 35 mph

Would probably go near 40 but I fear a meltdown, seizure or explosion.

A lockup at 40 would not be pretty.
