'The Empire'

BUILD DESCRIPTION

'The Empire' was a project born to participate at the Redbull Alpen Brevet (see their website), a Rush of about 142km to the Swiss Passes, this means exceed three Passes from altitudes of 2165, 2431 and 2224 meters. The all in 4 hours and 34 minutes. Last year 'The Emipre' has stood the test without any problems. This year we go again.. The idea was to be able to customize a Puch in a Old School / Vintage mood. The project was the restoration of the old classic moped, like we used to. So no body builders, but sandpaper, spray cans, hacksaw, and lots of sweat and good will. Particular details: fork from unknow Sachs, handlebar too, saddle from Bianchi bicycle, spotlight back from unknow motorcycle, decals from antique bicycles, cylinder Avionic 75cc (80's italian cylinder, today impossible to find).
