Hello Whizzer fans, I'm collecting parts to assemble a Whizzer bike around a NE 5 engine kit that I purchased a while back. So far I gotten a set of wheels from Worksman , a springer fork and some smaller items. I would like to ask for your input as to frame selection .I currently have Two Schwinn frames to choose from ,one dated from 1958 and one as yet undated but much later. Both frames are of the cantilever type. Both are bicycle frames and don't have the drive belt offset in the frame that I've seen on some of the Schwinn frames built spacifically for Whizzer. My questions are, can these frames be bent to provide drive belt and sheave clearance without damage to their intregity or making them unsafe , and does anyone know if the Schwinn Whizzer frames of this cantilever type were specially reinforced for strength and the bicycle frames were not ? I'm mainly concerned for structural
safety. Sorry to be so long-winded.Thanks Steve
