    I think you are correct mate. I think thats why if you have a CH and want to fit the CH brakes, the stock wheels wont fit and you have to fit the Speedline wheels. The owners sell off the stock 355 wheels. Like PP has done and yellafella is doing. :)
    Looks like the RHR wheel is flat anyways. :):)

    i know, it's insane! (we're talking about goober though remember...)

    he tells me it does 22 revolutions of the wheel per rev of the pedals. i'm too drunk to do my Pi calculations, but if someone knows the diameter of that wheel they can tell you how far you'd travel each time you pedal.

    he did say hill climbs aren't much fun...

    nerd time.. for some reason my brain has memorised pi to 9 decimal places..

    3.141592654

    I'm guessing the wheel is 26"

    hmm, at a pure guess i was gonna say 42 metres per pedal-rev... doing the calcs it's actually 45.64 metres - unless i bungled it really badly!

    gotta be a story behind a bike like that! hopefully it involves power tools....

    tomorrow afternoon i'll take a pic of a real motor pace bike. from memory the gearing is something like 60x12 on a 27" wheel. what's the story with that thing anyway? if you want to start a bicycle thread i can take some ineresting pics.

    they fit with spacers, but then there's very little thread holding the wheels on with the standard bolts.

    According to the list of 365bb's I have, it is an Aussie(Melbourne) delivered car and 3rd(final) series of 365's, so seats should have headrests and engine lid probably has additional air vents

    Yep, I have R.M as owner. Do you know what it sold for? (more than a 512 I would presume :D)

    Do you know if the 365bb listed thru Pickles sold?

    i dreamt up the idea when my F & T shop was quiet one day, started with square piece of stainless steel and then machined it to a circle and then hand drilled out each cog then had it planed and balanced to suit chain, goes like the clappers, u can just sit behind a bus with air tow and cruise at 60kph, wind is an issue and braking is non existent, so if bus pulls up quickly u end up wearing the bus.
    wieght is the biggest issue cos its all on one side, and it goes to a shimano 5 speed gearing, we had the smallest cog machined to 8 cogs only and its diameter is just over 13 inches or 33 cm and has 77 cogs on it.
