Well done, that looks really great. You will be the centre of attention wherever you take that.

Quite a long time ago now, I posted a thread asking for some advice on a wooden bike build I was planning. See this thread here: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/ebike-motor-kit-for-a-wooden-bike.38862/#post-576505

I have now finished the project! See some pictures and videos below. I have also created a website with more info on the build here: https://mailchi.mp/8d168d3b6f59/jzgz80emam

That's a fantastic build! Have you done any stress testing of the frame to breaking point, to compare it to non-wooden frames? Also is the plywood waterproof? Will it rot, loosening the bolts? Is there any creaking while riding? Can you make your well written PDFs easily downloadable?
