Threw together and rode this 1947 Roadmaster Klunk-rat today, and it rides way better than the 1939 Elgin version which donated many of the parts. And yes that is a skip tooth chain turning an Ichi Bike sprocket on a Nexus 3 speed.

Got in a nice 15 mile spin on the Mill Creek trail, riding the ratcycle after tweaking the rear hub and installing new handle bars. This thing is so smooth and quiet I was able to sneak up on a heron looking for some lunch. It's a great day to get out, so, get out!!

Schools are still closed so always a go place to ride the 38 Henderson, been liking the skinnier bars and a taller neck. I did eventually get kicked out, guess they thought I was having too much fun drifting in the hallways!

Put the rack on my '48 Transfendered Hiawatha, and took it out for a nice cruise. I'd love for this to become a 3 speed, but to do that I'd want a different style shifter. Any cool ideas running around for custom Nexus 3 speed shifters, preferably something that would fit the look of this build?
