this is fucking incredible
The leather washers under the bolts on the -frame- bosses are wrong. Leather washers are for bolts on fenders. Those washers should be copper.
I'm curious about the twin edelux. Are you running them both off the dynamo? I wouldn't have thought that would work (well). It does look cool though. If it is not, one should be running off the battery. No matter how cool the jaguar looks it is in your light beam and has to go.
Your bar setup is kind of stupid. They go all the way up and then come down. There is not a particularly functional tops position like you would have on drop bars. I would not want any bar drop on that bike. I think the bar setup is silly and most likely uncomfortable. That bar would work better flipped and lower. The nitto decalieur for your gizmos is extremely cool though. The bell is in a stupid position.
the thudbuster post looks awful as do any black posts with silver rails. You missed a trick not getting a b67. There's actually just too much black stuff on the bike to work with the retro brown colorscheme. And I don't dig the whitewall tires because the wheels don't look 'mean' enough but nor does the bike have a freindly charming air to it, though it nearly does.
And the lack of functional storage is ridiculous. E-bikes should all have racks and baskets or panniers.
What you've done is incredible and the bike is extremely cool, I could go on about things i like and you've clearly set it up very competently, but I do not think it quite works and nor is it as useful as it should be. I assume you actually will ride this, it's not just some folly?
And to improve the aesthetics quickly imo either silver post and rethink how to hide the battery and make it look more retro (copper surround?) or black tires and black pedals.
