The Musicle - things are happening

So since picking up our bike last week, we've had her over to the welders for a spot of spot welding. And quite a bit more as well. Just edited this video together to show some of sparks and flashes...they've got great music at their place.

We've come to the conclusion that a vintage musical bicycle should have a touch of rave about it. Just a touch. That's why we've opted for a modern style deck. As you can see from all the amps etc in the video, we're not going to be able to power all this noise by the hirer's peddle power alone. Its just a reality really, although we'll definitely try and power the deck mechanism. That's the most important innovation for us to get right. We've got a rather special engineer working on it at present.

And here are our horns. Beautiful, genuine old gramophone ones. Perfect.

Will hopefully bring you news of the advanced mechanical engineering tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
