Below is a Link to an off topic Victory Highwheel bicycle. I normally wouldn't subject the list to an off topic bike, but I think the construction method of this bike is most definately on topic. Victory Bicycles are 100% hand made. All of the parts are handcrafted, and in some cases using methods that date the bike itself. Even the spoke nipples are turned on a lathe. I have seen the bikes in person and am always amazed. For more info or pictures see victorybicycles.com. No relation to seller, but a friend of the builder. I know this sounds like an ad, but it is not meant to be, I just though I'd pass along info on cool bike still built in a way I think we all appreciate.
