Thanks a lot for your support, folks. I've kind of narrowed down on getting this Wildfire Bicycle with 49cc engine built on (just got on auction for $400, not bad). It has a lot of important accessories such as lights, disc brake, splash guards, good kick stand, horn, etc. Engine is a bit slow but I think I have to watch my step with the state troopers in MA. I figure if engine doesn't work out, I can also repace with 80 cc in the future.

I'd be curious if anyone has any direct experience with this company.
Thanks,
John
That bike looks very nice for $400. I especially like the fact it also has a rear drop stand. I've never dealt with that company, but I just might contact them about hopefully getting one of their drop stands for one of my builds. The bike I want it for is a '46 Columbia that has a GruBee 48cc engine on it, and you'd be surprised how much grunt that little engine has. It hauls my fat butt around nicely, and can reach 30mph with the 50-tooth rear sprocket. So don't discount what that little engine can do, unless you have a lot of hills.
