Hi to all , I'm new here to the forum and thanks for having me ! Hope I can contribute and gets some info ... I'm a heavy equipment mechanic by trade and my main hobbies besides fishing is building and riding 4 wheelers , I am into the old school Honda 300s and 450s , if any of you'll into 4 wheelers and mud riding , I hang out at ATVHonda.com ---- newest hobby is motorized bicycles , it is addictive
I am starting on my second motorized bike build , my first build is a E-zip electric bike that the electric took a dump , the E-Zip frame and wheels are heavy duty and I hated to let the bike go , so I converted it to a 2 stroke , I'd say that build is a success , it runs great and is fun to ride , but I live rural and there are a lot of dirt roads and I wanted something more suited for it , a motor cross bicycle for say , LOL -----
So I am starting a Mongoose Malus big tire bike build , just got the BBR 2 stroke stage 4 engine kit and a Sick Bike shift kit in the mail ---- I thought I did a lot of research on it , but apparently not , as right off the bat , the crank bracket insert that accompanied the kit seems not the right size as the Mongoose has a very wide crank bracket to start with
So my questions are about setting up the crank for the Sick Bike shift kit , any links to threads or videos would be greatly appreciated
Here are some pic of my E-Zip ---- and the new project a Mongoose Malus which I got from a flea market for $100 , the guy wanted $200 for it and after he didn't sell it for 2 weeks he took a $100 , think I got a good deal
