4.3. Brakes in place

The brakes is there, in front the Magura hydraulic brake. The both back-wheels have the ordinary Campagnolo street bikes brakes, that way I have a good solution since the front wheel, that will take a lot of force, has a really good brake.

Because it is quite tight everywhere in this construction I had to put one of the back wheel brakes in front of the wheel, the other one on the backside, since the moving parts during brake would be interrupted by the coach works. It looks a little bit silly, but,…

With most of the equipment that need to be glued (with epoxy) to the coach work in place I now need to do the last finish at the inside of the coach work. I intend to mix sawdust and epoxy to get a filler (putty) to get a inside finish that is good enough.

Some hard work again, but after I will be able to make a hole for the front wheel, and then I can try the function of the bike with the electric motor, exiting!

Look at this beauty, hover in the sky behind our house.

    My mother drew a distinction between achievement and success. She said that ‘achievement is the knowledge that you have studied and worked hard and done the best that is in you. Success is being praised by others, and that’s nice, too, but not as important or satisfying. Always aim for achievement and forget about success.’
