Cool thing is that one is made... in Poland :D

Not an option. It's illegal in PL.

Right now, before I download pictures from my camera I can just sya this: Inspiration for this thing came out of... 1907 Strap Tank 1909 V-Twin Bull Cycles 1910 Flying Merkel replica. Bull Cycles 1926 Peashooter replica. Bull Cycles Excelsior replica.

Technically this would be the best option, but I don't have the space to mount that second BB. The only option would be to mount it super low, thus leaving even less clearence than it already has...

Very old Shimano Altus shifters & tourney derailleurs. Apart of that, the only thing I can tell you is that "Koza" means Goat in Polish, and it's a popular term people use for bikes in some regions. The term came from the nickname used for fixie track bikes.

Love to see that there are some Polish bikes still out there! Except from Poland that is... :21:

Exactly what I was thinking of. This thing is not spring loaded Well it's made for a bicycle engine, so I think it should withstand use of a normal chain.

In my case the ghost ring would not work. It makes the chain go higher, while I need to make it go lower :confused: I've seen upper chain tensioners, mostly on freeride or BMX bikes, but they are mounted just next to the crankset, and that gives me basically nothing. Question is - will it...

Originally I was thinking on making this for the #15 Build-Off, BUT I JUST CAN'T WAIT :21: First of all - The base is a frame from the early sixties (don't know the exact production date, since ZZR stamped the year in code. I know from some sources that the frame number G9 XXXXX is a 1963 and...

This... is bad...:21:

Yes, but the problem lies somwhere else... I will make a thread for this baby in the Builds section by the way. Originally I wanted to wait with it for the Build-Off #15, but... I just can't wait, and I probably would not finish it in 4 months time :21: And I'm also so excited about it, that I...

Has anybody ever done this? I've seen only tensioners running on the lower part of the chain like here: Question is - is it even possible? I might have a problem with a chain that can't clear the seat stays, and I want to avoid cutting the frame.

Well, they actually do, I think SKS still makes them

No snow here, last week was mostly in the fifties in Warsaw PL o_O Yesterday it only started snowing in the mountains.

Out of old cogs, brake pads (from disc brakes), chains and knobby tires I make postapocalyptic costumes & stuff

Ekhu... ekhu... I'm just 33 and still think the same. Guess that makes me a youngling :rofl:

A lot, but after the third complaint they stopped, and probably just fired the packing guy who did this.

NAILED IT! :rockout:

I use grease in Nexus hubs only on bearings and a little bit on the hubs case. Then put it together and fill it with oil. Nice, smooth & silent.

I guess the only difference is that they use american standart BB's
