I've got about 450 miles on a friction drive system and during my first longish (15.5 miles) ride in wet streets it became completely obvious that friction drive was not the way to go, no matter how much pressure I had between roller and tire, and how much feathering I did with the throttle. I need this to take me to work and back, so now I'm looking at taking my Huasheng 48cc 4 stroke and mating it with a GEBE drive kit.
Other than making sure that I have a good rear wheel, is there anything else that I need to know? I'm serious about taking this through the rains of fall and winter, so any help on what I need to know for the conversion would be great.
Thanks.
