Do you think this could be made into a MB?

[japennell]

Good morning. Well, I just finished my first power bike and its awesome.

I have a mountain bike and it is uncomfortable because it forces me to ride forward. I would like a more comfortable ride and found this bike for sale near me. Do you think it is realistic to think this could be converted into a MB?

There is a second bike that gives wheel size specs. Rear 20" 4.14w

I do not have access to welding equipment nor do I posses that skill set.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

heehee...you got bit hard, dintcha?

if you have no access to fabrication, carefully research the availability of the adaptors and mounts you'll need to do the job with a set of wrenches and a hammer. if you can, do a sight-fit before buying the bicycle. that's about all i can give you re: production-model choppers. someome here knows a lot more about it, and will be along shortly

i sense a pending "wild in the streets" project topic, and from what i've seen
of your posts so far, i expect it'll be a lot of fun to watch

of those two bikes, the schwinn will be easier to motorize
they make parts specifically to mount engine/sprocket for the occ chopper
search schwinn chopper here and you will get lots of advice

The Schwinn Stingray would be sweet. You'll need...

A sprocket adapter from: http://stores.ebay.com/Livefastmotors

An exhaust pipe and motor mount from: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZbarry0070_70_0

I like the fake gas tank.
