Building a Replica Motorcycle - The Flying Merkel

#blacksmith #blacksmithing
In this video, I highlight a few aspects of a recent build, a sculpture of a 1912 Flying Merkel motorcycle. The bike was made of steel, brass, zinc, bronze, leather and wood. For more info, check out www.tradtionalmotors.com and @traditionalmotors.

The spokeless wheels are a wonderful concept. Love how they both came out.

Love it!
I wonder how do you fix the wheels? There are no spokes or plexiglass.

[@ThakIronworks]

Pins thru the forks...surprisingly rigid

You got me trying to figure out how you mounted the spokeless wheels 🤷🏻‍♂️
