I've never really understood why those bicycles have tanks. To me it just says "I wanted a motorbike but couldn't afford one so I've made by bicycle look like one" ....
I suppose its a good place to fit a light.

i'd love to see you do a steampunk bike, your stuff is amazing!

Ha ha if I did a steam punk bike it would be electric with massive, exposed brass drive gears..... With glowing valves and everything ! Lol
Maybe next time!

(I did make an electric bike years ago before the kits were available. It was for the girlfriend, she only tried it once, the whole neighbourhood could hear her screams... .. . It went more than 15mph...... Lol
