Rgs swing arm

There you go,


Mmm, I like the way you explored the symmetry and strength of the subject through the simple medium of  black crayon on cheap paper.  Undoubtedly the lack of detail (chainguard mounts, rear axle adjusters) adds to the mystery of this enigmatic piece while alluding to its ultimate and actual status as a 'fookin' stiff swinger'.  At auction I'd expect this work to fetch at least 18p.

Colour is a bit off, mine is all black, no white flecks in it.
Interesting bracing on the swing arm and increases in depth from the pivot out, not structurally correct, also rather odd that it is on one side...........

??? Can you not see that, that is not bracing on the left side? It's actually a torque arm for an under-slung caliper.
