once i get her goin', i'll let you know!
I just received my bike, after almost 8 weeks, on Friday, and now my back tire isn't moving -- think the chain connected to the engine has something to do with it; I'm waiting to ask some folks at Spooky Tooth Cycles. I'm also trying to figure out the cable to my hand brake. I've connected it, but I don't have a manual or anything, and all this is pretty new, so I'm doing my best. Once I take her for a spin, I'll let you know my top speed, which will probably be 10! Isn't that crazy!
Take care,
Sammy

my thinking, before doing anything.
i want power, just for hikes, i want low power for rides. sound like a classy guitar amp, 15 watt el84's a red cabinet and a nice 12" silverbell.

Hi Sammy,
concerning your build. Is your clutch hooked up and working properly? And if so, will your wheel turn when you have the clutch handle pulled in? If not, then I'd look to your brake or your wheel bearing. The tire and wheel aren't jammed up against the frame, are they?
Brake adjusting is not a big deal. I'll be willing to try to explain if necessary, but it'll be awkward trying to do it by typing. But maybe that's not necessary; is it just that you are unfamiliar with these bike parts? That's the impression I get. If that's the case, then I'll bet you'll be able to figure it out by looking at the parts and thinking a bit.
Good luck. Sometimes I go a few weeks without checking into this forum. But I'll try to remember to look into this thread at the next opportunity and see how you're doing.
