Anybody Know what a B-50 is?...It is a vintage looking thing..white GEAX tires on it, a GX100 Honda running a belt to a jackshaft thru the pedal crank hole and a chain to the rear on a huge rear sprocket..probably 100 teeth or so. I saw it in OshKosh at the Airventure last week.

This had a GX100 Honda running a belt to a jackshaft thru the pedal crank hole, with a centrifugal clutch on the right side of the jackshaft..chain to a very large..probably 100 tooth rear sprocket. Very professional..good looking machine. Model B-50 Anybody know where it comes from?

Thats too cool! Very nice..... for some reason it reminds me a little of "Firebikes" electric build..... with a motor of course
I did an Internet search and found nothing. Probably an Individuals personal project from a decade ago. Looks nice. I've not seen a rear chain ring that large configured like a belt drive. I don't think you can buy them that large unless custom built, right? I'm guessing the maker was a machinist or tool and die maker.
