Well , it may have been a badstart, but I can finish that build even if I am a little late. :lol:

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

Tank almost done.

And I change the seat. More confortable.

Things still missing yet, the back light and several details.

I love this bike. It reminds me of the motorcycles they used to use for motor pacing.

 

[irzouts]

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.
And you're right SSG pacing and stayer was my inspiration for this build.
