[QUOTE="Glen, post: 832724, member: 16803"] [B]04/07/2014[/B] Did a bit more on the gear levers today. Slotted some tube to fit over the gear twist grip bits… [img]www.glentimms.com/images/RRBO_9/09_GearsPart.jpg[/img] Welded them to some steel for levers… [img]www.glentimms.com/images/RRBO_9/10_GearLevers.jpg[/img] Test mounted them… [img]www.glentimms.com/images/RRBO_9/11_GearLevers.jpg[/img] I also did a basic design concept for some body work that will (hopefully :rolleyes:) cover the ugliness of the frame... [img]www.glentimms.com/images/RRBO_9/12_Body.jpg[/img] I have been wanting to do this on a bike for ages and would preferably use aluminium to do it, but it costs too much. And I don't have the skill or desire to try fiberglass, which would probably take too long anyway. So I might do it in paper mache over a cardboard form.
