I really wanted an electric bike, but I did’t like the ones in the store. Most are boring, and the ones I do like they are really expensive. What to do? What to do? Build one! So I bought an Electra bike frame with big, I mean fatty fat wheels and started from there. Nothing too dramatic, but what a beast it has become!

I wanted to just take some photo’s and show it to you. But a long time ago I graduated the Academy (Theatre) with a movie, I was the first one to do so.In those days it was hard to make a movie. Hard and very expensive. My dreams of becoming a filmmaker ended after a few years. Mostly due to lack of funds.

Fast forward 20-odd years, and everyone can make a movie. So I did, for my own enjoyment, and hopefully yours.

I build a custom e-bike with 1920-1930-ties aesthetics based on the Electra Cruiser Lux Fat Tire bike.
