Dirtbreath Posted June 28, 2013 Share I'm with Hairy. Or I'd be keen on some of those nice sprockets but bigger, say 21 - 23 teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Monday when I have a bit more time to spend doing research, I'm going to find out about the correct Ali to use. I'll keep you posted as I know more info. Â If anyone has any ideas of what they want they can send me a sketch or digital drawing in DXF format to Myself at orders@rindrouting.co.za.

Pieter1 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Soon to be completed... The momsen will donate some parts to "The flying Dutchman". Since I'm first generation Dutchman South Africa I thought my bike should pay some kind of a tribute to my heratige, hence the color scheme. I can't wait to put this puppy together!!
