I just installed a friction drive on my Schwinn High Timber. It was by far the EASIEST MB assembly ever. I think it may have taken me 2 hours to install the whole kit. This included swapping out the original tires and tubes for continental town and country 26x2.1. This thing is fast, light and simple. I'm loving it already. I probably won't keep it on the schwinn since I really like dual suspension MB's but I had been sitting on the kit for months and just had to throw it on there. I was bored
I would totally recommend a friction drive as long as you're not planning on using it in the rain as the roller will slip on the wheel. I originally bought this engine for my girlfriend but I think I'm going to order another one with a smaller spindel. This one is DARN fast with the 1.3/8in roller. Amazingly it'll pull really well up most of the hills here. I have to pedal assist of course but she really moves!
