Video link to "First Run":
Daughter was filming (lol).
And the chain didn't come off, the wheel just got yanked to the right side.
The left hand axle nut must not have been torqued down all the way.
I'm lucky I didn't bend the axle. Love that wanna be Harley sound, lol.

You might need a chain tug to keep the wheel straight. I had to use one on my right side because the torque in 1st gear wants to twist and yank the axle forward.

Yes, something like that. I had to mod mine to be used in my forward facing dropouts. If you have horizontal dropouts then no mods will be needed to use them.

Has anyone used those 212cc Predator motor mounts that gasbike sells? I'm thinking of using one of those on my next build. This one mounts the motor upright but I'm sure it could be used on the bottom tube instead of the seat tube:

With that front brake now you can safely take it for a rip when them chain tugs come in. I bet that thing will haul gluteus maximus.
