Default Hi

Hello from El Paso County Colorado. I've been building bikes with my brother for several years and finally hunkered down and built my own personal ride to keep.

I acquired an old style Schwinn Skyliner off of Ebay last month and have the following on it:

1. 65cc 2 stroke engine
2. Jackshaft kit installed run to a Shimano Mega Range Cassette

Planned upgrades include:
1. Better carburetor. I have a Dellorto clone which is jetted very rich and I'm going to see how it runs on E85.
2. Tuned pipe exhaust
3. Front disk or drum brake

Dream list upgrades
1. Nuvinci hub
