World's Slowest Indain

[Pushiepirate]

Always been a fan of Burt and his achievements, had to build a tribute to him,

not the same model nor is she a streamliner.

Drew up the plans on paper then cut bits of old bikes to get the parts for the frame.

 

Live pretty isolated so only got an arch welder.

 

Few twists with this one she has an electric pedal assist kit.

 

Gave her the "barn find" paint job.

 

Engine parts, bits of plywood, plumbing pipe, brake lines, an old torch and other junk.

 

She can be a board tracker as well as a street machine.

It is a street legal 250 watt job, it's okay for what I use it for but

if I went again I'd go a better performing unit. Purchased from

the mob below, they don't do the kit I have anymore.

I've moved this thread to the 2 wheels section for you (more appropriate fit). 

Damn this is cool! I love the discreet electric conversion.

Yeah I'm looking at adding a discreet hub motor to an old BSA/Raleigh type pushy. 250W appears about the same size as a dynohub so wouldn't look out of place, just not sure it's grunty enough. Will prob go 350W 36V front hub but may look a bit shit on the front (want to keep Sturmey Archer rear hub)...
