Hi all, I received the Tamiya bicycle set for Christmas along with the Aber PE set. I did a google search on every variation of German Bicycle, but came up with no photos. Can anyone point me towards a site with some photos or technical drawings of WWII German Bicycles? Thanks in advance.

Try to look up online pics of the "Victory Museum". They have one of the bikes as depicted in the TAmiya kit. I just saw it a few weeks ago.

You might also look at this site:

Thanks for the info Roy. The Airconnection Link photos were great for building reference. Where do I find the "Victory Museum"?
