Herr,
Interesting! At first glance it looks like a partly assembled trials bike (with the tank, seat, head and barrel missing!), but the design makes a lot of sense - everything tucked away, lots of ground clearance and minimal restrictions on the rider moving around. Lots of little innovations in the Ossa tradition, and beautifully finished too. I don't think it will be long before others copy it!
All the best.

This one has made me rethink some road two stroke designs too now Herr I wish I were blasting over the Col D'Aspe! Instead of waiting for winter
