Oups! :oops:
I forgot to post some update...
Here is la Chouineuse.
These is not complety finished. I don't know if I will make a cockpit or not.
I make some cruise with her and it ride not so bad (when it's flat) . Maybe a seven gear coster brake will be better than 3.
And the bbq is...
Thanks !
I see that kind of post seat on ebay from time to time but it's always too expensive. So I decided to make my own. Hope it will resist.
I was lucky to find exactly the same spring in a flea market.

Some progress on the bike.
All the fork and reinforcement are done.

So, I give up the contest this time.
:cry:
Anyway...
