Mr Lud, Come visit Jim's bike at the Pennsylvania Rally. I'm sure they'll let you perform all you want.

All I need is the air fare and the price of the travel insurance. Don't ask, just go ow! , that's much it costs for me.

Looks like the marriage of two cruiser or balloon tire frames.

My slowly maturing Raleigh is going to have a Motobecane engine and transmission like that. Hopefully I will have the engine etc by this coming weekend.

Ludwig,
I hope you don't mind if I add a photo of a famous old 'lightweight'. It didn't have pedals so it wasn't a bicycle but it has always held a place in my heart and this photo is a beautiful example.

Harley Davidson 'Hummer'

Ah yes, the American rip off of the DKW RT125 after WW2. So unlike the BSA Bantam or the Minsk

It all worked out in the end as Fujitsubo in Japan copied the Hummer to produce their Eagle.

Most interesting; it appears to be American, but with a British made Villiers engine. Is it known here?

1902 Rambler

A page with a Haussman, USA. I can find nothing, except it looks like a version of a Smith Motorwheel in the back.

Saginaw Powerbike.
