Hello fellow MB'ers,

I have many fond memories of playing with lawnmower engines in minibikes and go-carts. I went from minibikes to BMX to mountain bikes to motocross. I also really enjoy two-stroke motors: 100cc Hodaka Super Rat and Suzuki RM 125. Do you know what's funny? I didn't get the sports gene but got the anything-on-wheels gene. It seems like you guys are having too much fun and I've enjoyed the technical know-how, problem-solving, and personal experiences in the forums. I want to pass this enjoyable hobby on to my son. Someone was throwing away a mongoose sycamore bike (26 " wheels) in our apartment complex. And then, a certain politician outlawed small gas engines by 2024! Naturally, I want to rebel against this form of madness with a Phantom 85 kit if I can still get one...Anyways, that's my story and I am sticking to it.

Welcome to the cult. These bikes are too much fun, you might look into building one yourself so your son has someone to ride with.

Lets see a few pics of the Mongoose model you have so we can see if there may be any problems trying to put a motor to it.

The tri spokes are the best on the market

The coat of arms is my family coat of arms from Ireland...Its not some random generic one but the real thing...lol.

The wheels, I got from bikeberry, the ONLY thing basically that I would buy from them, not a real fan of bikeberry but the manufacturer of the specific mags I use are made by STAR who makes mags not only for bikes, but cars as well...Thats why I chose them...Mine have about 3000 miles on those mags right now.
