ikonikmoto announced a somewhat similar model, but it doesn t seem to be available. seems like yours is a better build and certainly a better engine.

My original concept was to keep it as close as possible to an early board track racer, complete with a separate pedal crank in a coaxial shaft at the bottom bracket. But I intend to ride this bike on the road and by the time I finish it will need all the safety equipment necessary to pass state inspection: lights, horn, etc.
Here's a pic of the most complicated part of the whole build; the coaxial shaft or "quill shaft". The pedal crank rides inside the drive shaft on a separate set of bearings.
