It's almost done. All parts are in their places with more anti seize and fat than (probably) ever before...

Goodbye boring grey, hello flame red...

Before I forget what I learned about setuptools and PyGObject stuff, this is my leaflet:

Oh, that is soo sweet...
Plus: giant Kudos for the edit work.

@nobody That won't be necessary, he can already handle a balance bike¹ and they've got trikes in kindergarten.

¹ it looks like this: mytoys.scene7.com/is/image/myT$ and is called "the motorcycle" 🤣

Finished the cleaning job. Before putting it all together again I think we need some colour here. The grey plastic parts will be spraypainted red and there are some new stickers required also.
I don't plan to mount the ugly fenders but chain protection will be necessary.

But now off to work.

@sullybiker The bike seems to have been kept under quite dry conditions so it's mostly flashy rust and a classic WD-40 treatment should do.

First things first: disassemble most of the parts to judge the state and clean/derust...

I found an abandoned kiddie bike in the basement and next week my nephew turns 3 so it is time again.

I watched Solo yesterday and I was really entertained. I liked the visual appearance, the creatures, and there was Woody Harrelson (that was a good compensation for annoying Emilia Clarke).

IMHO the overall expressions of mispleasure are clearly disproportionate.
