Slingshot "Done"

[Christian]

Hi I´m Christian from Germany and this is my new Bike called "Slingshot"
The Frame is a old modified Adler Motorcycle Frame ca.1930 and the Fork is from a old NSU Quickly Motorcycle.
In the back works a Nexus 3 speed Hub with a Shimano Click Stick and 50mm Rim from Felt.
The Frontwheel is from a NSU Quickly with a Drumbrake and linchpin.
The Cranks and Chainring are from Profile Racing with old NSU Pedals.
The BrakeLever is a old Magura Motorcycle Lever and the Seat are drawn with white Cowhide.
The colors are Shock white and Apple Green from Montana Cans with Black trim Lines. "Edding" :lol:

Hope you like it :roll:

Re: Slingshot

WOW, that's super cool! I ecpecially like the redline bricks and the front drum brake... is that an original bicycle brake or is it form a motorbike?

EDIT: I just read the post and answered my own question. AWESOME BIKE!

I really like the lines of the bike and how that fork looks like it is part of the frame.
