some more of my bicycle projects

This bike started life as a 1980's high tensile steel Schwinn mountain bike with cheap parts.  I rebuilt using: Shimano Nexus 7 speed rear wheel and Shimano Inter L generator front wheel. 
Crank is from a 1980s schwinn 5 speed
Chaincase was purchased in 1988 in the Netherlands
Chain is from my old garage door opener
Handlebars and stem are from a 1978 batavus dutch bike
Fenders are 1930s vintage
Tires are balloon type 26x2.1









I painted everything black to look like the world war 1 and 2 bikes.  I even painted the spokes and hubs.  I have yet to add the dynamo tail light.
