Hey everyone! So, i'm in the market for a motor kit for Christmas. The bike I am using for the build is the Schwinn 700c Men's Admiral Hybrid(http://www.walmart.com/ip/Schwinn-700c-Men-s-Admiral-Hybrid-Bike/19582534)(My girlfriend works at Wal-Mart, so I got 20% off.).
Down to my question:
What motor do you suggest to get and from where? I want to be able to distance ride and keep the kit under $500, if at all possible, under $300.
1) I'm OK with 2 or 4 stroke.
2) V-frame or rack
3) Chain please... or maybe belt, no friction.
So far, i'm thinking of cheeping out and getting an HC 2S from www.gasbike.net (One of the Skyhawks). I do know that most HC motors are tinker and ride-able, but I want something I could do 100+mils/day for a week on.
