it's a brooklyn machine works FQ; basically a street version of their link bikes, designed around 24" wheels. the pulley is for the 'jack shaft' design, supposedly to reduce pedal-induced bob. the cannondale fulcrum DH bike had one, and i think an older canfield design too?

are those walls pink ?
Douglas, doug, duggy-dug-doug,

Them walls are a MANLY "salmon" color. :clue: Pink is totally different.:rofl:

Think the string from his man-pon was getting caught in one of the many chains he has all over that bike? (Nice looking bike BTW :thumb: )

Dudes, the walls are Salmon not Pink. :cool:
