I have too many bicycle kit engines. I cannot find the time
to ride them all. This is a Mitsubishi 43cc Encore Manual Direct
Drive- " shift on the fly" kit. Bolts to bicycle eye outlets frame
or I did order it with the no eye outlets just to get the extra
parts. This engine is not broken in yet and only has about
20 miles on it. Includes the extra rollers.....$400.00 if there is
anybody interested.

I have a Chinese 49cc kit that's more trouble than it's worth and may be interested in this. So what does this shift on the fly allow you to do? Engage/disengage the roller from the wheel? How sturdy is their mounting hardware? That lever looks like a real nut buster.
I'm in Florida so is that price shipped?

Retgi..... I am just getting use to the sling shot flying
screeching monkey china girl engines...lol.
Yes that is correct about engage and dis-engage the rollers
on the tire. The lever can be hooked up on the handle bars.
It is a nice sturdy outfit. It has the click lever throotle.
The engine had to be primed for me to start it yesterday and
went for a short ride on it. If you let the engine sit around and
not use it...that is what happens. If daily ridden that condition
goes away. Look up Dimension Edge website to find out more about
this kit or monster.com.
I can split the shipping with you because I am losing alot already.
If you find that you are interested in this kit....PM me.
Thanks for considering about this kit

Charged-Reactor,
Sounds like a fair deal and I'm seriously considering it and also the GEBE system unless someone else comes along while I procrastinate. So how simple is it to change out the rollers? Twenty miles isn't much use! You have any issues with this system at all? thanks

I purchased this friction drive because of the engage and dis-engage
option with the lever handle. In stop and go traffic it quickly became
a pain in the ***. So as I was impatently waiting, instead of killing the
engine and peddle up to speed again, I left the motor run and peddle a
little bit and engage with rollers already turning and it spun the tire on
the rim enough to snap the valve stem off the tube. It set in my machine
shed with a flat for a long time before I even got to it ,to replace the tube.
Thats why there is such low milage on it.
The set up can be very frustating if you have not set one up before.
But once you have it set up right it can be very enjoyable as long as you
remember to kill the engine when you are coming up to stop or simply dis-
engage by lever handle and then kill engine. Start peddling again and engage
lever handle again and your on your way........Still interested?

I believe that they offer 3-kits. One is called " automatic self
engaging drive, a simple 4 bolts on. The one I have is called " shift
on the fly, handle lever engaging direct drive". A little bit complicated
set up with bending of the support arms to set up. The other kit they offer
is called " automatic centrifical trans-mission clutch", has a pull cord start only.
