Just for thrills, here's the project bike. Just built the wheels, drum brakes on alloy hoops. Rear is set up to take a 5 speed freewheel. Paint is "appliance epoxy", gives a decent finish and comes in a spray can. This will be getting high rise handlebars and a moto-style banana seat.
Finally found a shorty Schwinn front-freewheel crank so I'll be able to use the SBP shift kit.
Tires should be in soon, and then we'll see how it rides before the motor gets slapped on.
There's a separate thread going about the Russian engine kits elsewhere in this forum, anybody have direct experience with these? I like the look but a bit unsure about the rest.
Cheers, Geoff
