will any of these bikes work?

Just some tips about the bike you choose:

Road and mountain bikes already have busy handlebars with levers and shift controllers on both sides and you need to add 1 more to each side.

You can either try to just shove the clutch and throttle on as well but besides looking pretty dumb they make it a lot less safe to operate.

The proper way in my book anyway is to do it is the following:
Completely remove the front derailleur shift control and both brake levers.
Put a dual pull brake lever on the right with the throttle.
Move the rear shift controller to the left with the clutch.

To do this the bike needs a rotary rear shift control you can move to the left so don't buy a bike with lever shifters, especially if the brake and shifter are one piece.

You will need to buy a dual-pull brake lever, $13 at sickbikeparts.com so you might as well get an NGK Iridium plug as well so figure ~$28 delivered.

In my opinion the safest and easiest to operate controls on a bike with dual shift and brake controls on a 2-stroke gas build ends up looking like this.



On a 4-stroke builds with no clutch lever or electrics this of course is irrelevant like this electric built I am just wrapping up, I left her handlebars intact all but removing the right grip and putting on the half grip rotary throttle and a 1/2 grip on the right.



Other than making sure your used bikes back wheel and brakes are sound that should steer you in the right direction to buy a bike you want to put a 2-stroke on.

ty all
kcvale i would love a cruiser bike but i not seen none worth the look yet well there's a couple but want 100-150 for them i could get a new one for that price (again to my first post is it worth looking for 90-150 old cruiser bikes are they better that 90-150 new cruiser bikes)?,so i broading my options at the moment i want to get started but no rushing into things .yes a mtb looks clustered on the handlebars but if i find a cheap one i might go for it if not i look for a cruiser bike .

That is a great bike for conversion providing that it's steel and not aluminum. I'd be pleased to own it
