Brit street tracker in Swiss mountains


From Jan-Willem of the Dutch Brothers

This is Roger Leuenberger's bike. He a gardener - rocker. He got insprired by the old flat trackers a long time ago. It took him forever to build this bike because he doesn't speak English and could find the proper parts and so made compromises. Then later on he found the proper parts so he had to change again. some of it is my fault. First he couldn't find tires and wanted to mount it on 17" tires, you know the common mistake which completely fucks up the look of a tracker. Then I showed him the K180 dunlops which are street legal. so he had to change wheels again! it just went on forever.
