At one point my Fujiyama as going to receive a hand built wheel up front with a dynamo hub. It still may one of these days, but I think I’ve found even a better solution. Now when I say better, I don’t mean better. What I mean is “more retro.” Better in style points as it were.
What’s the solution? A Sanyo Dynapower! As the fella who is selling me says, “This is the classic state of the art up to the mid 80s.” Since I was sort of state of the art in the mid 80s (maybe not good art), it’s fitting.
At least I hope it’s fitting. I’m going to have to lose the kickstand for now. That’s not the worst thing in the world as the one I have, a good one, doesn’t really work with the current geometry of the bike.
This picture isn’t mine, it’s from the fella selling it to me…
I’m still waiting to hear about the wheels…fingers crossed.
Here’s the rest of the bits and pieces…
Slower, cheaper, less useful…
