front and rear hub.



 stage 2 -wheels!
 How wheels are the element that defines the line of motorcycles, the beginning of which gives continuity, connect everything to have for a good Visual at the end , will be costumize from scratch, the  design, execution  hubs,  handmade spokes, 18”rims  ... built, centred will be a real  challenge, but worth ...!
The project is a partnership, my partner who after a week of searching , phones, trips, ours of staring  to the  monitors, he managed, to find themm the ”rubbers”! old style,good looking one.
good luck and good vibes! till next post ... .


stage 2.
rotile!
cum rotile sun elementul care defineste linia unei motociclete, inceputul care da continuitate, lega totul  pentru  a avea un final vizual fericit, vor fi costumizate de la 0.... as zice,adica butuci proiectati, executati, spite facute manual, inele de 18”...construit ,centrat va fi o adevarata pacoste, provocare, dar merita...intr-un final!.
proiectul este un soi de parteneriat,  partener care dupa o saptamana de cautari  telefoane,deplasari, chiorat ochii pe monitoare ore intregi, a reusit, cu chiu cu vai sa gaseasca gumele dorite, totusi,ele vor ajunge acasa abeea peste doua saptamani din praznica  Germanie(suna a ciumeg, pai suna! pina sI cEI DE LA Buc. au dat comanda dupa ele acolo).
noroc si voie buna! pina la urmatoarea postare ...
