the end :mrgreen:
 
That is an insane bike. I think I'm in love.






I want a Straight 8 so bad.... we have one in one of the shops I work at (under the same 2 owners) and I ride it nearly every day to get a burrito for lunch. :lol: The only thing I don't like is the coaster brake and sound the hub makes when pedaling. If I had fabrication experience, I'd buy it and throw on some mounts for disc brakes and an Alfine 8 speed hub.
 
Your bike is awesome !!! incredible...
You won't mount the pedals...?
I'm happy to see your front multi-brake. I hope you will tell us how you feel it.
I think i will order two of them for my project but i'm wondering if i will pay special taxes for shipping to france...
It comes from Taiwan, right ? Did you wait a long time ?
 
Thanks man
:mrgreen:
Pedals is a different story, I need them for the law So they will be visually but most likely will not work :wink:
The device so heavy so that the pedal it low fun :lol:
The brakes came approximately a month, I've even paid the tax :(
I will install and test them and write what came of it :p

Hi, i have these discs for my project and they are for a left mount, if you want to mount it on right it would be reversed, the spike of tooth pointing to the front...
