Okay, so that's a little dramatic - but still.
I'm here as a result of a really unfortunate commuting situation. My way around it - a bike. A better way around it - a motorized one!
So I got all excited and ordered a kit. Poking around in here over the last week or so I'm seeing that I already did like 801 things wrong - bought a coaster way too big for me (like .5" between my crotch and the top tube) with zero consideration for brakes. Ordered some caliper brakes to hopefully make things better. No clue what I'm going to do about the frame situation - I should buy another frame... buuuuuttt I think I'll try and get through very first build before deciding what to do about it being too big.
I'm also trying to fix my sad little scooter...
Me? In over my head? Naaaah...
Looking forward to learning from you all and shedding my dunce cap soon!
