Greetings from georgia

hey everyone i've been checkin out this site for quite awhile, but i didn't feel worthy to join until my first build was complete, and so as you can see I have joined due to completing it a little earlier this week. I saw a huffy cranbrook that looked sooo good i had to throw a motor onto it, so i bought it and installed a Flying Horse 66/80cc motor from zoombicycles on it and through much headache i've gotten it up and running and have been breaking it in for a few days, and it flies so far my newest problem however has to do with the chain tensioner, no matter how much i tighten it, it slips sideways into the spokes. i'm contemplating simply removing it and taking some links out of the chain. is that safe? anyway greetings to all better pics coming soon btw

Welcome to the forum. I haven't been "Under the Big Sign" in well over a year.
Nice looking build. Adding a front brake may save you a lot of pain, as cars will turn in front of you, oblivious to your presence.

Welcome...Front brake for sure...pin that chain tensioner ,,I/8 or 3/16 will do it..

thanks guys, i'll definitely get some brakes (i've already had a couple close calls) and after looking for a few solutions i've decided to change from the 415 chain to a 41, and most likely remove the tensioner altogether. i got the tensioner to stay still but somehow some links broke off the 415 while i was riding making it too short :snobby:
