A bit of machining needed to fit the Brembo caliper with the spoke wheel.
Once again thanks a lot big Ezio!

What the...
Today I was moving the TR-1 in the workshop, when I noticed a little "upgrade" from the previous owner...
A matchstick in the tachometer...
Maybe the original project was to light it up at a certain speed... or maybe this is Mac Gyver's bike.
Don't know, but some people are definitely strange...

The Orange Project: from rear to front
For the front wheel spoke conversion I've found a pretty solid rim and hub from a dirt bike.
Yes, it's a rear wheel, but the rim width was perfect for the occasion.
The hub was the problem, too big and a bit ugly to fit the forks, so I decided to work it a little removing the unnecessary bits and shaving the rest.
After a little polishing it's time for the reassembling.
Now it looks the part!
New bearings and test fit. Looking good!
Next: a new wheel rod

New Plan B headquarter
There is a reason behind these two-weeks-radio-silence,
I've moved all the bikes and stuff in a new place.
Actually, I moved the workshop about 50 meters top, and the new space is only slighty bigger than the other one, but it has its own door, so...
New workshop/Old mess!
There still are boxes and bags all around, but it feels like home already!
Now back to work!

From France with "love"
A TR-1 has arrived, in pretty bad shape
New project on its way for Mr. D.
It's hard to belive they are almost the same bike...
