1st Motorized bike build Chain issues please help

[vader00]

You would need something like my homemade motor mount with swivel to do that so you can raise the level and angle of the motor and be situated more towards the rear...From there you would cut your chain down to size and possibly even be able to maneuver the motor in such a way is to not need a tensioner at all like I did on mine.

Link for one of these mounts at amazon.

Thank you ! I was looking at your bike having it on the front and visualizing it on mine and I wasn’t sure if I’d need one for the rear I will post updates when I get the mount in thanks very much for the help.

Do you know where he go the wheels from? Also I’m curious if I bought this frame and put my engine on it if the pedals are going to spin around with the sprocket if you get what I’m saying lol. Sorry if it’s a stupid question I’m a beginner

Whats the best bike for a 2 stroke?

Were miles away, but I bet our side of the railroad tracks are pretty similar. Before I found cranbrook in trash, I picked up a 74 schwinn world traveler & a 74-75 schwinn varsity people were throwing away, was going to build 1 of them, but long skinny front forks were scaring me. They can be...
