Has anyone tried or knows if a engine kit would fit on it?
You bet your ass it does, enough room for a jackshaft too, no frame modification!Has anyone tried or knows if a engine kit would fit on it?
Well, mine didn't have a a disc brake, it had a nice set of V-brakes.The traditional single speed setup wouldn't go past the 4" tyre, and even if you offset the whole engine to the left you would have to do the same with the sprocket, and that would leave no room for the disc brake.
Didn't you do an electric one too? I think you did..Go figure, wrong example, but I've done a Dolomite, just gotta find it ;-}
Did I forget to mention you can get it on amazon for $239 with FREE SHIPPING!!Didn't you do an electric one too? I think you did..
These dolomites are actually quite sturdy, and those fat tires make up for the lack of a suspension, while I have front suspension on my bike with 3 inch (really like 2.5 honestly) the dolomite rides a bit smoother and the lower seating makes the balance of the bike feel pretty good, I don't feel like I'm tight-roping on my steering at all and it feels particularly nimble actually in harder turns because of all the grip. Handles snow like there isn't any snow..
Lol and it's a 45 pound bike to start with, put an engine in that and top it off with a rider and you definitely need disks, great thing too that it is really difficult to lock the wheels up with emergency stops, this bike is probably the one I felt safest riding on.I went electric shifter with my Mongoose Fat Tire build.
With ~1KW of power that sucker rocked for it's size and needed those dual disc brakes to stop it !
