Lovely! SS with a coaster brake? Bonus FBNPNA points for the nurse's lock. What's the front light - a Cyo with a silver casing?
Thrustvector-
Thank you. It's quite an old project, 2014 I think. I posted it as an example of an old-tourer-turned-upright for @Ndeipi.
I have started riding it as my main bike again recently though. It no longer has the nurses lock. That was a hangover from Dutch bikes where it makes a bit more sense. Took an embarrassing amount of time to realise I can do exactly the same thing with a small d lock through the spokes but a d lock has the option to lock it to a thing as well. Doh.
Yes the light is a cyo iq. It looks a bit more minimal because the black rear cover fell off. Not an intentional design choice!

This is my zippy upright. Well, it's as zippy as this old engine can drive anyway.
It's an Orbit gold medal frame (80s tourer) so it started life with drop bars. The stem is just the the one it came with.
