My First Motorized Bike

Hi all, some of you have probably seen me floating around the forums a bit, and to all who have helped me in my venture (special shout-out to DAMIEN1307) thank you so so much, I couldn’t have gotten to where I am without y’alls help!

That was my dilemma, I was going to do similar to Damien but I know I'd have to stretch it pretty far to also accommodate the brake bracket, spacer axle nut, rotor and rotor spacer, I'd estimate almost an inch if not a little more. The dropouts don't seem to bend very much. Maybe a torch could help bend the frame a bit? The dropouts don't really have anything but the weld to bend on so that's out

Don't use a torch. An inch will really be pushing it. Get another frame with a wider spread. Use one these to spread it with.

You must have an aluminum frame, they don't take to stretching at all. Try sticking a magnet on it.

It's a steel frame. Same as the one here. I didn't mean to hijack this guy's build but I figured since he had the same bike he'd run into the same issue and it looks like he did and had to revert to how I have mine now

This was one of the main reasons why I used the Hyper Beach Cruiser frame for my present build...A meatier frame to work with...below is a link to everything I used to build it as well as links to the parts i used and how i built it with links leading to other links to co-ordinate all together in hopes it can be of help to others...DAMIEN

Whats the best bike for a 2 stroke?

Were miles away, but I bet our side of the railroad tracks are pretty similar. Before I found cranbrook in trash, I picked up a 74 schwinn world traveler & a 74-75 schwinn varsity people were throwing away, was going to build 1 of them, but long skinny front forks were scaring me. They can be...
