- 240 (3.9L) Straight-six

- 1960 (?) Schwinn King-Sized
American

Bicycle
- Sturmey-Archer drum
brakes
- Profile handlebars

suspension fork
I machined parts to attach
a small chainring to the original large one to provide emergency
low-range gearing.
- Very heavy.
- Very fast downhill.
- Brakes are trick,
but not very effective.
