Default Re: looking for engine for bicycle.. NEW here.

I hope my China kit is that way now. I have gotten rid of the tensioner completely and the chain seems to finally be stabilized. The nubs have worn off those tires so it does rattle the chain any more. The engine has caused me very little problems since I got the installation correct. It's the *darn* chain that has been the most problem. I think I would rather go with a rear mount friction drive and just replace the tires. In my case speed isn't a factor but I have this kit now so it stays.

I think a rear engine bolt on kit based on a similar low priced engine would be the cat's meow.

*replacement word by the author
