What would be ideal wheels for my build?

[Gordy]

s**t dude hope thats just the bike and nothing happened to you! Is that the bt80 build?

Yeah, that was the first bike it was on. It's on a Cranbrook now.

Cool! How it goes so far? We have talked a bit about it on my old ac before I changed my email and gave up on mb for like half a year

It's currently hydro locked because I left the gas on when moving across the US and the foat got stuck open. Up until that point it ran great for 500+ miles.

Sorry to hear that but still it's nice that you got nice miles out of it!

If I drain it put and let the gas evaporte it should fire right back up.

I hope that's not the frame you cut into.

s**t, he remembered...

And a idiot (me) knows others mistakes but still thinks he'll find a way:3

You're talking to a person who built a bike others said wouldn't work; yet rode the bike for 10 years. I'm talking about the LandRider which shifted 7 gears automatically.

Maybe you have the equipment to melt down the frame add other metals to change its composition makeup. Otherwise that's something that can't be changed. The bicycle manufacturer chose this metal composition for its reduced weight. It appears to be a beginners to intermediate off-road course bike. The manufacturer didn't choose a metal composition that could withstand a mid-frame engine mount or vibration being sent through it.

There have been several successful aluminium frame builds but these bikes were kept on pavement.

Cool dude! If I get lucky with my idea of using polyurethane foam to reduce vibrations and reinforcing frame with JB weld and brazing on some plates it will be a nice bike (at least when it comes to its dimensions and looks since taking of engine related stuff is pain in the ass) so do you think there could be also anything else done to the frame to make it stronger? (Also If I figure out a way to attach securely track dropouts I'm gonna do that)

You'd be better off getting some steel tubing and building a copy of the frame you want to use. The welds on aluminum frames are where most vibration cracks occur. Then combined that with the jarring effects of off-roading its a double whammy.
