Motorized Wheels
Like I said people, this thread was started to inform people of an alternative method of driving motorized bicycles other than your sprockets spoke attachment method.
I'm discussing motorized road riding, not BMX, or MTB stunts.
If you own spoked wheels that are disc brake ready you can use this sprocket mounting method too. It is FAR superior to the sandwiched spokes attachment. As far as wheel preferences go, spokes or mags thats a personal choice.
If you prefer spokes wheels, more power to you. Just dont dis me for my mag wheels.
If you dont want to get flamed, cut the name calling, and read before you post silly comments. I dont care how long your 'member' has been here, he started it. Just because hes been here longer than me does not give him the right to hassel me. I even let his stank comment pass before I felt I had to defend myself.
He deserves a Darwin Award for attempting to remove himself from the gene pool for not reading the instructions before using graphite wheels for stunts.
Who among you does not know that graphite is brittle and not fit for such purposes? Oh sure, it makes great fishing rods, and aircraft, but its not impact resistant. He should have read the instructions. So he put himself there.
Would you skydive with a parachute made of canvas? Would you hunt bear with a B.B. gun? One has to be intelligent enough to use consumer products according to their intended purpose.
Did you hear about the idiot that killed himself by blowing up a lava lamp in the microwave? True story! I dont feel sympathy for stupid people.
If you prefer to mount your sprocket on your spokes, you go right ahead! Its your choice. If you want to eliminate the afore mentioned problems, eliminate the afore mentioned spokes.
If you dont want your feeling hurt, then leave folks alone.
