Finally riding a big boys bike
This is made from vintage bicycle parts I collected over the past years. The fork was made from an old fork, that a welder friend modified from a drawing of mine. The chain ring and badge are reproductions and were from Bob Barns (Pictured with Jay Leno) in a trade at a Long Beach swap meet. The bicycle was used to show what bicycles looked like during WWI, for a bicycle museum show I did during the Amgen Tour of California. I used 700cm rims with a period correct rear brake and did it to ride! This was a fun project and was made for displaying period parts.
