Errr... nope.

Great looking bike.
Are the unit tops solid wood, my wife would like to know ?
Thanks

Perhaps there should be a sub section of the forum for kitchen related questions! No they are mdf worktops and the floor is vinyl.

That is why I almost always take my bikes outside for photos.

I showed my wife the photo of your bike, and the first thing she noticed was the wood countertop and floor.   

That is a very nice looking bike. I have the Mk2 (yellow), but I prefer the classic look of the gunmetal grey.

Thanks. 1960s worktop, tiles and cupboards but 2019 bike. You have to get your priorities right!

Not quite a gates nomad but something for my 4 year old with a gates belt drive.

What! No Rohloff? 
You're certainly starting him off well. He'll be a cyclist for life.

Maybe 40-305 tires on there? Here's an inflation table for 305 BSD:



I don't see a rim width but anyway the contact patch should be about 1.1 sq in. What's the load on the wheel? Maybe 35 pounds? So maybe 32 psi inflation?
