Hey everyone!
Im originally from Brazil but live in Austin texas.
a buddy of mine bought a motorized bicycle but ended up having to move to Hawaii not too long ago so I kept the bike. It needed a new carb and throttle so I bought them and after the bike sitting around for almost a year I was able to get it running .
Once I got it running I decided to strip it all down and rebuild it from the bottom up.
This is what it looked like after I got it running
as of now I stripped everything down and have just finished putting the primer on the frame and will finish the color and clear coat tonight.
I have a hub and bushings coming tomorrow because the rear wheel is in horrible shape and my buddy took out the shifter and the chain would always skip gears and fall off. So I would like to get a new single speed rear wheel but have no idea where to find one with 12 gauge spokes and the correct number of spokes for the 9 hole hub and bushing. I would also like to get 20" or 24" rim for the back and have a bigger 26" wheel in the front.
I plan on having white seat with white wall tires and grips, red hubs off course and rolling stones stickers on it giving it the tongue theme.
Holla if ya hear me and wanna give me some pointers!
First build no previous motor or electrical experience.
