Can someone please help me with my new build?

Well that stinks, I went ahead and bought it earlier today I was antsy I couldn't wait. I wanted to get it here faster. So...I guess i gotta deal with it now..and I love that statement too I've heard that from a book I once read ..not sure what it was tho. I just remember being youngish and always trying to read quotes and poetry books. But anywho I still don't know what I need to get extra for it..does it come with the brake rotors or brakes or anything like that? And if it does do I need to order something to fit the disc brakes to the bike since it has the clamping brakes 🤔
It needs to be the right type of frame (most are) with 2 holes near the axle on the front fork and 2 on the rear(driver side)
 
Wow that's nice wish mine would have done that.
They are in fact warped and pulled due from the hub adapter slipping and ripping into.them..in fact one of the spokes was.totally out of the wheel I noticed when I went to get rhe hub adapter back connected in some way. So I just tossed it. I'm using this rim just to get by for the time being but will have a safer more reliable rim here in the near future..it should be on its way now tbh.
Post pics of your front fork driver side from side and rear sprocket driver side from side
 
60 mph on a bicycle! I used to go for the speed when I was young and dumb and full of &$#. When I turned 70 it was all about the RIDE, slow downed and enjoyed the sites around me. I actually saw things I had not noticed before at 50mph. I suppose it’s to each his own.
Yes it may not have been that fast but it was close and I probably shouldn't have been going that fast knowing that my tire wasn't all the way put together the way it should be. And this engine is only fast because of the engine it is. It's made by smolik it's called the Menace a lot of people were talking about it so I bought one I know there's a couple people in the group that don't care for them too much personally but I kind of wanted the engine. And to all effect it really is a phantom with a different head and not the problems. You can almost get on this thing like you did the break in already without doing the breakin but I'm doing the break-in regardless. I just gave it a little push to just to see how fast it would go and it shot out fast. And it's honestly too fast especially for a bike. It should not be on a bicycle frame it should be on a motorcycle frame. It feels like everything on my bike is probably trying to shake itself apart as I ride it. But it is nice, it is loud, and if you like speed it's perfect. I feel like it's going to be a very reliable engine though, as well. They did a good job with it, to be honest, it stays really cool I've hardly put any kind of patina on the muffler yet because it stays so cool. It looks mean and it sounds mean a pretty intense motor all together. They did a great job with it.

If that was a new box for the 3 spoke mag rims it would have the the disks, the disk brake calipers with disk brake shoes, the 36 tooth sprocket and all the nuts bolts etc to bolt everything up with.

You still have to buy the 22 tooth pedal sprocket free wheel and probably a slightly longer chain at your local bike shop to be able to fit the chain.
 
And ...do I have to weld or anything like that or do they make a adapter to go on for as to fit .

Ok but I did get the open box so does that mean who knows what's in there? And if so.. I have the free wheel already I have two of them. Do I need the 22 tooth pedal sprocket to turn it into a single speed is that why I need that. And can I use a 678910 speed chain that I bought or do I have to get a different one.

YEP...lol.

I don't have a clue...lol...Hopefully someone else can answer this question...As for me, I just started out with the regular pedal chain and added links to the chain to make the right length before putting on the master link and pronouncing it good.

Take your old chain to your local bike shop and see if they can match it. Another thing, since you have invested in a Smolik engine, look at hydraulic rear brake on Amazon, you can get a good one for less than 50 bucks. The bb mag you ordered will have a disk on it( I hope). Not trying to tell you what to do, just want you to be safe!

If it doesn't, I have 2 sets of brake disks that i never used for a different bike i had..I have 2 free wheel sprockets, and what's this about the hydraulic brakes. Care to elaborate. And safe went out the door as soon as I thought of gorilla glue as a fix for a hub adapter . But I know what you mean...

He means hydraulic disc brakes. I like the line pull type. I have them and so does @DAMIEN1307 . With a 203mm rear disc you can run a 36t max. They make larger rotors, but they are expensive.
