I have an 3 speed next bicycle … the hub looks kind of big .. And the bottom part of the frame looks big too…. Will a sprocket from a motor kit work ? will the motor mount with what comes with most kits?

You are gong to have a lot of work ahead of you to fit the engine in that space. I have a Next and I am not going to even try to mount one up in that space.


The rear hub is too big, and will require a lot work to get the hub to fit.

It will be easier to find a bike to fit your engine than fitting the engine to that bike.

I did some online checking on those next bikes,and yeah it looks like it would a gaint headache,if this is going to be your first build I would go with something easier like a standard mountain bike or beach cruiser,once you get a few bikes under your belt,then try to fab something up for that next bike,It would be cool to see one of those motorized.
