That bike is sick as fork. Where is the rear brake located? Is is on the jackshaft? I see 3 cables, one to the front, one to the throttle and one to??? I don't see a rim or disc brake and the hub looks too thin for a drum brake...where does the 3rd cable go????? Awesome cable tuck btw. Looks like a bike that can take daily abuse. Bet they can ride it to the track, race, place high and drive home .

Over 2 months away, what is busted?

 

[CrazyDan]

The housing and bell. Its an old 2009 4g 1c I bought used. I would guess it has over 8000 miles on it easily including what I've put on it. Figure I'll just get a new one, the remaining parts seem nearing the end of life.

I just won my first social race there was a bike ahead of me beyond the light it change I took off he had a 200 yard lead on me I thought he was going kinda fast for a bike up a hill will I caught up overtook on the hill at 21 MPH went few blocks stop, the guy was flabbergasted I had done that to him he had an electric pedal assisted bike we both laugh had a gas.

Ask him where he was coming from said Argentina. I ask, Where you headed to?
Said, Alaska! s**t I gasp, the guy has put 7000 miles on his bike and still has 2 or 3000 more miles to go, haven't seen someone so free and bold for decades!
