EZR's Full Suspension Summer Project

Thanks Fairracing. You made my life much easier! This whole time I thought it was a Giant. I know my frame isn't a 16" frame b/c I'm 5'9" and its alittle tall for me and my seat is all the way down.

I'm glad I could help....look's a little different then yours, but maybe it's just a different year.

I really do like your bike. It is going to be a classic for sure.

Thanks Deacon. The motor came in today but I think we'll start working on it next week.

WOW!!! This Frame went for $360 plus shipping!!! I looked at it more closely and noticed that the rear top pivot point is located above the top cross tube. I wonder if the motor would fit.

That looks like a gt lts3 frame.

Do you think you could fit a honda 50cc engine in that frame?
Darcy

You probably could on my frame. It's has a pretty large mid section...like its owner! lol

While you are looking for a frame you need to know that a 16" frame is still a 26" bike with a 16" tall seat post. I will try and find a chart that will tell the height of the bike at the cross tube, as a 16" frame. It is the stand over height. Have fun, Dave

Just so you can figure for the Honda fifty engine. They are 30" long and about 8" wide. Another problem is that the sprocket is 3.5" from center so that it will not fit a happy sprocket, it lines up outside the rear frame. I have been looking at the idea for a while. I have a pile of the 50 engines in the garage, I started restoring Honda 50's a few years ago. The pedals would need to be crazy wide to clear if in the center of the frame. I was thinking of over the rear wheel. I have three speeds and four speeds, hand and auto clutches. Have fun, Dave

PS: Were you thinking of the commercial engine? Oh well have fun.
