hey guys i was wondering if any one has tried using a bike rim for a sheave ? i have a 3.5 briggs i would like to put on my current boardtrack project, i realy dont want a china kit and the briggs would fill the frame nicely. im not sure if it would work i think the belt would fly off the rim, also i have no idea of the size pullys to use for proper gear reduction the wheel on the bike is a 26 inch rim any advice would be greatly apreceated

Howdy Dash, nice meeting ya. I can't remember the thread but some one has done just that and if I remember correctly, with success. Index of /ratiocalc This is a program that does the math for you. Great thing.

Post lots of pics and good luck/work with your project
