| | T mounting bracket So... I did not get that bracket in my box but was asking, does that bracket help keep the bike from vibrating?
What other benefits does this mounting bracket help with?
Thanks |

| | Re: T mounting bracket No. I will give you al link to it. http://motorbikeworks.com/directions...ions%20PDF.pdf
It is page 15.
And also when I put my sprocket on the bike does it need to rest fully on the spokes or can it rest close because I am going to put the rubber pad on it anyway. In the directions it also says I need to file the hole in the spokes bigger so the sprocket can rest on the spoke.
Thanks for any input on this  |

| | Re: T mounting bracket That is a bracket that Livefastmotors kits use to mount the motor to the down tube of the bike. Do you have a LiveFastMotors kit? If not you will have some other way to mount the motor. You definately need to mount at least 2 places to have a secure motor. The sprocket mounts on the hub with the rubber/fiber disk inside and outside of the spokes sandwiching the spokes. The sprocket does not touch the spokes but the rubber piece.

| | Re: T mounting bracket Well... I have a large down tube and tonight I tried to put the engine in and need that bracket. Does anybody know of another way to fit the motor mount around a big tube? Im starting to think that the T bracket is kinda lame. As in it does not look cool. |

| | Re: T mounting bracket It's not lame if it works and it will if you fit it carefully. Here is datz510's solution to oversized tubes that will take a little more skill and effort to build, but is nicer... Rotten Orange build - Gary Fisher Aquila shifter buildup!
