Welcome to the forum guys. Look through the board track section and you'll get lots of ideas. Alot of folks use the Worksman Newsboy or some of the vintage prewar bikes. I'm using a Worksman Industrial, but it has required a lot of modification. SportscarPat is a good resource for what you need too. Good luck, Dan

what are the challenges with this style like if you build it off a bit will you have handling issues

what you guys think of a bike motor kit on a banana bike also known as a low rider bike???

I thought about a low rider bike since I built one in 5th grade. I still have it, but they are very unstable at a moderate speed due to the front tire being so far forward. They are more for show or cruising at a show. I still might put a motor on it, but try it to see the ride. If its unstable, then I will change the fork.
