Ok from the thread title I think its obvious that I am new to this forum. I am a college student who lives fairly close to school as well as close to my new job. I have been driving my f-150 or my Jeep back and forth which I enjoy but with gas prices rising I have been looking into something different to save some $$$. I have a diamond back mountain bike back at home just sitting in my parents garage. It is a full suspension bike as well. I just need some information as where to start. I have done some research and found companies such as golden eagle that make the kits but I can't afford to shell out $600 right now. I am mechanically inclined and have the ability to fabricate mounts and such. I would prefer to simply buy a kit and install it if I could find something cheaper.
I think I want to go with the engine being mounted over the rear tire and doing either a belt or chain drive. Is there anybody that sells the kits cheaper than golden eagle that meet my specifications? Sorry to be vague I am just clueless as to how to go about this thank you.
