So I finally broke down and bought an engine for my GT mountain bike. My friends have been riding on cheap eBay engines, but thought if I buy one I need quality with a supplier to back it up.
I have been reading through the forum to anticipate any problems. What I have found is the oil/gas mixture for break in is critical. I have also read of some breaking down their engines and rebuilding to ensure there is no foreign partials inside the casing. And I have read about the many issues of engines not wanting to start. At this point I am nervous and skeptical, but I am a motor head so I hope I can do this right.
Anyone else have the 2010 Grubee Skyhawk engine kit? Any problems? Notice any cheap parts that should be a priority to replace? Break in?
