ArtDeco eBike Build

Mind blown, a true work of Art, with a capital ‘A’. My only nit to pick, from an aesthetic stand point, would be the choice of saddle; seems like some kind of long-spring ballooner seat would be more visually interesting. But that’s just me. Congratulations on such a stunning build.

Amazing amount of fine work. Congrats on a beautiful bike! I like that you stripped the cranks down to polished silver. Must be very satisfying to ride it around. Thanks for sharing your build here.

Thank you! Regarding the saddle, yes, there are some interesting saddles out there, however, the Brooks Cambium C17 Copper is a comfortable saddle on a long ride. I have them on other bikes and like the fit. I plan to put some miles on so comfort is important. Cheers!

Now that be mad skills! I might have went a little more old school on the seat but that's an impressive ride.

Beautiful job all around & a lot of attention to detail. I can see some of the influences that you mentioned. @Miq brought up a good point about the cranks. I've been debating that on one of my builds, into these retro E bikes myself. I hate to admit it, but I'm with Shawn, @Freqman1 on the seat & since you are, technically a little knee scuffer, you can take some constructive criticism from whomever. Great bike & just my three cents.
