Hi Everyone:
I'm getting ready ready to build my first motorized bike. I have the 50cc motor kit, but trying to decide on a bike for install. I have looked at Wal-Mart, K-Mart and internet so far. I found one that really captured my interest on e-bay. It is a Micargi, Falcon GT-R. I noticed the large dia. frame tubes, for which I am sure I could build different motor mounts, but have a couple of questions. #1. Does anyone know if there is enough room in the "triangle" for the motor to fit into? #2. It has 68 spoke wheels. What kind of problems are encountered with mounting the sprocket on wheels with more spokes? Will I need to order a custom sprocket that clamps on the hub/axel housing instead of the spokes? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. (other than 64 year olds should not be playing with bikes)
Thanks!
