After a couple of busy weeks, I was able to put the main parts together and started to finish some smaller parts like brackets and support for the saddle, brake spoon, step,...
I took the bike inside for a nice photo:
Only missing the handlebars and the tyres.
I bought some cheap classic cranks and pedals in the local hardware store to test-fit on the axle. Everything fitted like a glove! In time, I will make some genuine high bike cranks and pedals, but this will take a couple of weeks.
Since the weather is getting better, I want this baby on the road as soon as possible.
Next week, after I pick up the handlebars, I will finish off the remaining items like saddle bracket and brake spoon.
After this, the bike will be completely disassembled and painted, while some parts will be nickel plated.
Cheers,
Filip
