This is one for Bikepete I am thinking?

Nik Bowdler won this years BBAR using a 77 tooth front ring in all events. Makes the bike look like a 3 wheeler, most likely hits the ground if you get a puncture.

First post on this forum, I am trying to get my enthusiasm back after a 10 year lay off.

Surprised this picture hasn't turned up yet.

Is that chain ring the same as the one in Mickle's post?

 

[palinurus]

It bloody well looks like it!

Guess they didn't make many of those.

 

[mickle]

Different bikes and different decades but they were both built for drafted Land Speed Record attempts.

 

[palinurus]

Naw, just noticed the pattern of holes is different.

Back to the Moulton, people say they like riding these bikes but am I the only one that thinks they don't look as if they will be a good ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, you are not on your own Keith. I don't fancy giving it some hammer on little wheels.

I have a recumbent with twenty inch wheels that has a 68 TA chainring

A very popular misconception lads. Once you get past the size of the wheels they handle like a "big" bike. I've had mine for nearly 3 years and it's a hoot over taking other cyclists on it. Top speed, down hill admittedly, 47.8 m.p.h. no problem!
