Looks like a DAX 36T on the rear. If so, then, that is the way I engineered the 36T was to be a nice fit so no hassles with any elliptical orbit on the sprocket. IT is a total hassle when you have an air gap there. Where did you get your kit? What size motor is it? Looks like a perfect fit to me. Ride safe... and..Enjoy the ride..

WELL to be all honest Dax... it came from you .... i guess you can tell yours from ohters huh ? any way its doing good so far with very little issues. only problem i have had so far it the clutch handle bolt came out .... (easy fix) that and keeping all the guys at work off it ( hard fix ) only got about 25 miles on it so far..... caint open it up yet,,,, but i think it will run much better with a 03 to 1 ratio in it and be able to find the "sweet " spot on the throttle.... i plan on porting the exhaust pretty soon so the air flow goes better ... feels like it has it holding it back,,, but man i really like this motor... i plan on putting it on a moon dog later.... thia is the 70cc kit ... think ill go with a bigger sproket next time ,,,, as this kit goes plenty fast enough at half throttle so ill get a 40 tooth next time for better pulling on hills ... yall be good till next time

Nice looking motorized bicycle. And I love the "looks" people give you. They just can't believe you built that. You'll be surprised how much better it runs after you get it broken in...................................

well, Ronny, you give me hope that everybody's favorite vendor actually does ship below the Mason-Dixon line. i've been waiting 21 days now to see some positive action in my shipping status ...

OTOH, if your experience is any indication, i can expect a good solid kit sounds like you're having a big time with yours! keep us updated.
