Ok guys as I posted in my intro thread, the Staton kit came in! Just for reference, it is this one:
Staton Inside Drive Kit
*note to self, learn how to do linked text on this forum
Which is the inside drive gearbox mated to the 35cc Subaru EHO engine. I also ordered a heavy duty back wheel, which mounted up easily. Bear with me while I figure out how to embed photos in a post..
The wheel, oufitted with a Schwable Marathon tire and extra-thick tube:
Then the engine drive side, where I put several washers to shim the hub out to the right spot. I may replace the washers with a nut turned down to the right thickness.
Then the pedal drive side has one washer and a nut which I cut pretty thin:
This all turned out pretty good.. I still need to adjust the rear deraileur thing for smoother action, but the hub is in about the same location as the original hub, and I won't need to dish the rim over.
Next up, the engine brackettry.. which I haven't figured out yet.. will post after dinner.
