Hello all, I have been lurking and searching for a while now and need some help with my first build. I am going to college and looking to for reliable transportation that I can pedal. I have a few questions I hope you can help me with.
1. I want a 4 stroke (so its quiet), chain/timing belt drive (so I can ride in the rain) and I need it to be reliable. I am also not really wanting to spend more then 500ish on the kit, but willing to spend more if it is an easy install.
What kits are available? When I try to search all that comes up is cheap kits that people say are not reliable.
2. I don't understand what happens to the cranks on the bike when under engine power, do they spin or is there a freewheel somewhere?
3. I don't have a bike yet and am looking for suggestions, I've got around 300 to spend on the bike.
I could be wrong on everything I'm thinking so please feel free to tell me I'm being an idiot. I just want to do it right the first time so I am not on here in 2 months asking why my bike is broke. Thanks so much for the help!
