That Neodynamics thing looks cool, but complicated!

Hello in Columbia, SC...from Doug in Panama City, Fl.....Neodynamics is NOT the right site...Its the first one on your post...biketomopedkit.com...somewhere in Michigan....A friend visiting Chicago found there ad in a magazine....that how I became aware of these engines....

Well...

This is a statement the site makes:

Q- What is meant by street legal; and is this bike street legal?
A- Street legal defines a vehicle that is legally allowed to travel on the streets. This motorized bicycle kit is street legal in all states. Some states require license and registration for a factory made moped, but a customized bicycle is considered pedal assist by federal law.

In new york state, it is illegal to drive a motorized bicycle (bicycle with helper motor attached,) on any street/parking lot/roadway, etc., where cars drive. There are also issues in several other states (IL, WA) which may make it impossible to legally ride. And, there is NO federal law regarding motorized bicycles. There was a proposed federal regulation, that, AFAIK, was never implemented.

His blanket statement that is it street-legal in all 50 states is flat-out wrong.

There's some other items in their FAQ that's really stretching the truth beyond where it should go. Almost no maintenance for a year, for instance...

In the left column of THIS Page is an ad for biketomopedkit.com.....I strongly advise everyone to be very careful if you deal with these people

The $299 for the whole kit with engine seems good, and showed a friend looking to motorize a bike. Is there any cheaper way to get the engine and sprockets so I could build it myself on to the friend's bike?

WARNING TO ZnSANE...check further ....299.00 is NOT a good price , and that does not include freight,........

I have purchased a few engines from this seller on ebay. His ebay prices are much cheaper and the product is good and so is his service.
