This is a 5-Speed Sturmy Archer stick shifter. The bike is only a 3 speed so only one side of it will be used. The back of the headlight bracket is shown as well.

Awesome job.

Props! BIG PROPS! :mrgreen:
 
STUNNING! Makes me want to get straight to work! INSPIRING! Love the headlight mount, and how you contoured the frame to match the rear fender... the subtle custom bits are what really catch my attention.
 
Thanks guys, I've always thought that small details add up to a greater whole whether its bicycles or anything you build.
 
Very cool!! Love the pin striping, the headlight bracket and the fender braces! You're absolutely right about what you said about the little details....that's what took this from an awesome bike to an out of this world bike! The paint looks great too! It looks like it was dipped in it and if you drug your finger, it would still be wet! Love it!!! Amazing bike!
 
Looks bloody unreal. The paint job and the fender stays look sweet and the front fork dropouts look so different but cool. I can only hope my build turns out half as good as this. Oh and the back wheel is deadly, I love it, any progress photos?
