| | Anyone know about friction drive roller's? I've just started my spoiler project and 1st thing I changed the seat!, Then I took the original tire off and put on a 130/80x16 rear. It just fits .I want to install a Honda GXH50 chain drive, but there's no room for the drive chain? On the right side I have my pedal chain and on the left I have my disc brakes.If I took my disc off, there's no chain clearance! So I thought about another friction drive but the normal roller drive housing is 3.5'' inside width & I need 6'' to make It work. Any suggestions??  |

| | Re: Anyone know about friction drive roller's? Another thing you can do to use the honda 50 is get a 20 X 3 rim, unlace the 20 X 4.25 rim. lace the 20 X 3 rim onto your hub and put a 20 x 3 slim cat tire on your bike. now you have your chain clearance. The 20 x 3 tire is still wide enough.
This guy sells a friction kit for your spoiler Motorized bicycles, various bike motors, electric bikes or TLE 43 bicycle engines for Dahon folding motorized bikes and tricycles.

| | Re: Anyone know about friction drive roller's? Hey, hows it goin! Here's what me and a couple of friends came up with for my rear fat boy tire & chain clearance problem for my Spoiler.  It came out pretty good but the bike is heavy and I'm getting around 30 + mph. My friction drive KK Slick Daddy w/the same engine is 45 to 50 mph!:ride |

| | Re: Anyone know about friction drive roller's? They Look Great And Safe! After 35 Mph On Regular Bike My Test Drivers Get Nervous And Tense Up AND Sort Of Go Into A Bit Of Speed Wobble  AND I NOTICED BAD PUCKER MARKS ON THE SEAT !!  I GOT MY LARGE SOFA SEAT TODAY, WITH THE VENT SLOT DOWN THE MIDDLE, THEY WON`T FIND ANY MARKS FROM THIS MUG!
