Hi everybody...
My name is Gabriel and I am from Basel (Switzerland). After I have read an article about Derringer Cycles I said to myself, I can build this on my own. So looking for the parts needed to build such a bike I found your site. I like this site very much and its really interesting to see how other people have built such beautiful motored bikes. It seems that motored bikes quite have a community in the USA. Here in Switzerland you just can see some Velosolex, but nothing like a derringer style bike.
Since I live in the center of Basle I dont need a car. I have an E-Bike to go to the University every day. E-Bikes are not so common in Switzerland and people are always starring at my bike...
I love to build things and I cant wait starting to build my own motored bike.
I found a nice old motor which I maybe could use (Mosquito 38-B Garelli from 1958).. but maybe I go with an china girl motor.
Unfortunately handybikes.com dont sell the General 5 Star moped tank, since they sold all their tanks to derringer. So I am looking for this tank. Maybe anyone has any idea where I can get one, or even have one to sell?
Greetings from Switzerland and sorry for my English
Gabriel
