  1. Me, a bicycle mechanic, and a friend (welder), would like to build a replica of a 19th century Grand
    Bi (Highwheeler bicycle), in a school project with/for students.

    We are looking for some informations about those "glorious days" designs.

    Does anyone knows were we could find some "plans" or "drawing sheets" that could help us in
    our project ?

    Thanx in advance for your help and for our kids "willing to know more about early cycling".

    You just buy one of Diane Blake's Victory highwheelers and copy it. You'd have something to ride
    while you're working in this project.

    This'll keep you busy for a while. I must say I enjoyed getting those links together. We have a
    bunch like this on one of our cycleclubs webpages and it was quite interesting to browse around
    for a while.
