Re: Hymn to the 1928 Model C

I agree with Nev it's not going to work to much oil going around to keep the chain alive, without oil the chain is lasting 2000 km.
A small (magneto) chain would work much better.

Re: Hymn to the 1928 Model C

I wouldn't have a problem doing that.
It's working with footrests and brake paddles so why not with this.

Re: Identify early frame

This engine is forsale at Yesterdays, as you can see it's differend.
I think it's 1902-1903 of a tricycle with the engine behind the axel like the one in the Beaulieu museum but you can put it in a 2 wheelerframe.

Re: Identify early frame

The Minerva engines have a wider crankcase so theire hanging in clamps so you need to know the engine mounting distance wich don't have as i sold all frames.
I can try to find parts for you but that would be better through PM and would be good to know where you are in the world.
