Hey everyone. Please help if you have any ideas.
I have a beach cruiser Schwinn bicycle. I purchased a "Grubee SkyHawk 4G T-Belt Drive V-Mount Kit, With HuaSheng 49cc Engine" from Kings Motorized Bikes a while ago. I assembled everything on the bike and the bike is about 90% complete.. However, I ran into a problem and put the project on the back burner for the past couple months.
Trying to get it complete as summer is short here in Seattle and I would love to have it running.
The problem: The kit came with a Wide Pedal Conversion Kit. The problem is, the included sprocket with this kit that connects to the stock bicycle chain does not fit properly. The grooves in the sprocket seem too wide and the stock chain does not lay in it as it should.
I've went to my local bicycle shop and they informed me the stock chain on my bicycle is the "universal" size chain for bicycles and there are no others. I've tried looking for other sprockets that are compatible with the wide pedal kit but are coming up with nothing. I see there are some wide pedal kits on eBay. Would any of these work?
I've attached a few pictures. The picture looks like the chain fits, but please believe me, it does not sit easily in the grooves and binds. Please take a look and any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jeff
