I thought so too at first... but apparently not.

See comment #15 on bikeexif by 'harryfxr' and Christini's website:

i would like to know how good that engine really is...

So not a conversion but basically a complete bike from Christini.

My favorite is the KTM 950 AWD though.


Christini also do AWD pushbikes...
