I knew your bike broke mate and I was waiting for the pictures, but I didn't think it would look like that.

It's all fixed now. Rear bearing shat itself and to my surprise, it was in stock. Unfortunately it wasn't covered by warranty.

New bike arrives next week. Oh baby.

Or until you tried to engage a gear and smacked the back of your head on the pavement. You've got to love physics.

It has the appropriate number hasn't it? Cause that's what you'd be doing when you rode it.

Either way you're right

I've ridden one, although it was powerd by by Kohler staionary engine with no gears, Oyster on here has built at least two and has supplied plans for a few more

That one would be more of a prick to ride with the set and pedals so far back, I'd be suprised if it was rideable at all

There's one sitting in a mates garage,I'll see about getting some photos of it
