| | Schwinn Spoiler engine?? Hey,
I'm looking at building a Schwinn Stingray Spoiler... I was just wondering if anyone has done this, whats the best setup? Someone mentioned there might be a kit for the stingrays/spoilers, does anyone know of this. also whats the best engine/setup for good off the line torque but also a good top end... basically almost like a 1/4mi drag style combination...
Thanks,  Sean  |

| | Re: Schwinn Spoiler engine?? its an electric motor in the front hub. You just switch out the front wheels. it wouldn't require any changes to the frame or look of the bike at all. It's expensive and wont take you more than 15 or twenty miles on a charge but it's what I would do given the amount of attention I have to give my bike. The electric would require much less maintenance. not chain problems not heavy vibrations causing problems. Just a quite hum. Or so they claim I never owned one. |

| | Re: Schwinn Spoiler engine?? 35-40mph (in short bursts)? 65 or 70cc dax frame mount, 36T sprocket. That will just get you there.

| | Re: Schwinn Spoiler engine?? Listen to Joe and Norman I think that is your best bet. I imagine hooking the little monster up to the big monster will be a challenge good luck. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
