The "Plug-and-Play" Bikes for 2-stroke china engines thread.

Okay, I don't know if there is a thread like this.. But, I wish would have found one when I bought my first "Bike"( teh next avalon first build from h3ll... )

Anyways, please post here any bikes you have found to be a perfect fit.(no changes to stock mounting/intake/anything..)

Plug-and-Play Bike List:
Schwinn Del Mar -- me,Cabinfever1977,Scotchmo
Schwinn Jaguar -- me

Fuji Odessa -- lordoflightaz
Micargi-Pantera -- fairracing31
Huffy-Santa Fe -- Finfan
GrantSport easy tour -- matt167

Baddd First Build Bikes: (Guess I'll add bikes not to be used(for the noobs) as well...)
Next Avalon -- me
Basically any Dual Suspension Bike -- me
Roadmaster sx sport -- Cabinfever1977

I'll try to keep the list updated pretty well..(I have no life)

Add the Skykomish Mt. Bikes like the Marble Point from Costco. Gravy install.

Two that are Too Easy
Easy install Gary Fisher Mamba, older model. Tight fit for carb but otherwise it fits perfect. (SBP Kit and motor from Spookytooth) Me

Room to spare Fuji Odessa I think you could put a small pinto engine in it with room for (Livefastmotors 80cc) Mark

If trailer parks didn't exist would tornadoes exist?

If you use the motors with the bigger front mount the Micargi Pantera is a "Plug-and-Play" Motorized Bicycle.

heres another bad one: roadmaster sx sport <-DONT USE THIS ONE

heres a good one i am using, you already have it listed: Scwhinn del mar

I think pretty much any 26" Huffy Beach Cruiser will fit the bill! I suspect they are all the same bike with different names stuck on them. Mine is a "Santa Fe"

I'm not lost, I'm exploring!

Any idea what year/model on the Mamba? also, does is fit with the stock mounting?
looks like about any Fuji Odessa model would work..(sorry to be picky)

I don't know the year on the Mamba I would have to say that it is pre 2002, since I could not find any manuals Gas Bicycle Gary Fisher Mamba Part 1 shows the bike, I still need to take and post finished pictures.

I put the motor in the frame with stock mounting kit with no issues to test for fit. The brackets are a perfect fit. Took motor off and added the shift kit.

I doubt SBP would ever sell the the rear mounting assembly without the kit but I think that it is a far superior way to mount the back side of the motor to the down tube.

It can depend on the motor. I bought 2 Raw 80 (66cc) motors. One of them had a front mount that was radiused for a 1-1/8” diameter down tube. The other was radiused for a 1-1/4” diameter down tube. Both had 1-1/8” diameter mounts for the seat tube. The included angle between the seat tube and down tube mounts measured 70 degrees on both motors.

If you want a good fit, get the motor first. Test fit different pieces of tubing to find the best diameters. Make a cardboard triangle with a 70 degree angle. Take the cutout and a set of calipers and go looking for a bike. It is unlikely that you will find a perfect fit. I bought a Schwinn Delmar because I liked it but ended up cutting out the downtube and welding in a 1-1/4” diameter tube at the correct angle for the motor. A good fit is critical so as to avoid some of the problems caused by vibrations. I saw a lot of the adapters, muffler clamps, and rubber mounts on this list. They often included filling in angle discrepancies with lead, rubber, epoxy, leather, or nothing at all. Some may work, but none are as secure as a solid mount. I decided to mount it the way that it was intended. Boring, but a sure thing.

Plug and play would be nice but may not exist. Some are easier to use. Some are more difficult. If I were designing one, it would have a 1-1/4” down tube. 1-1/8” seat tube and a 70 degree included angle, and also enough headroom. I might also consider using 1.75” tires since the 2-1/8” tires leave almost no clearance when the chains are properly aligned. They do work but alignment is just more critical. Or I might design it with a slight offset to the rear fork and/or bottom bracket. The 2-1/8” tires do ride nice. I could not find a bike that met every measurement. If you don’t mind some work. You can make it fit anything. So get the bike you like.

I had my engine on a bike that was a perfect fit, but my neglect busted the rear wheel and I just used a diffrent bike instead... was a GrantSport easy tour... still might build another and get a new wheel for it
