BT Flying Merkel replica

Here is a replica that I built back in 2006. Had a lot of fun building it.

I love this bike, one of my favourites.

Do you have any build pictures? Also i dig your seat. did you buy that seat or make it?

What's the engine on that?

Cool build. Looks like a Whizzer engine with custom reduction drive.

That is a wonderful build indeed.

It is a Whizzer engine with just a hotter cam and a nitch advance timing.
Right now I am in the process of putting it back together. It was stored for years just like my other one.
When I built both back in 2005, not a lot of people, at least where I live, were into this hobby. But now, it is a different story.
There are goups that ride around the whole Island. I mean, sometimes more than 30 bikes. They seem to have a lot of fun.
Next trip, I'm there!!
The saddle was ordered, and it is an exact replica of the original.
It was worth it.
