6 day racer

[petritl]

I recently purchased this unbranded 6 day racer, the frameset build displays traits of Emil Wastyn's work.

The bike is very light.

Hopefully I can find a correctly size rear sprocket so I can take it out on this Sunday's group ride.

Nice looking ride

you could pay a ransom with the drivetrain and cockpit

Crankset was mounted, rear sprocket installed, chain ring straightened, and bars wrapped, nearly ready for Sunday

what is your drivetrain tooth count? - it looks pretty cozy

 

[petritl]

1": 21 / 8
1/2": 42/ 16

that's a 71" gear - easy to ride, but you may be spinning to keep up Sunday.

Look how nicely the lugs are filed to a taper.
