Was getting my bikes out for the upcoming move. This bike hasnt seen the light of day for years. Thought I take a few pics. The build is basically finished, just a million little details. The Villiers is driving thru the bottom bracket directly to a clutch on the right side to a 3sp IGH.
I did something I have wanted to do but have never done, is to convert a coaster wheel to a front brake. Notice also where the rear brakes are. Should be a cool old school ride. Its a true 100cc. The old Villiers are smooth, torquey runners that dont rev overly high. The engine is an early 30s and the frame is a 36 Cleveland Welding step thru.This one may reach forty. Will be badly under braked at that speed, will keep it as an easy going 30ish cruiser.
