We found this super rare German 2-Speed WW2 bicycle in the basement of an old Bavarian country house and now we’re bringing it back to the road again.
The most exciting part is for sure the gearbox, which is pretty rare so see and very exciting to restore.
You also need to replace damaged parts with a 3D-printer?
Then have a look at our partner Bambulab
Short Q&A:
- No repaint, we like the patina as it is. It also fits better into our workshop.
- Restoration is in our mind a direct action on the object with the aim of making it work again, but to keep the character of the object. In doing so, its aesthetic, historical and physical characteristics are respected as much as possible.
