I think there is more room then the Mongoose frame. Really hard to tell form pictures. Go to Sick bike or bicycle engines and see if you can get the size of the engine and make a cardboard one and slip in it to see.................Curt

they are bigger than the Mongoose but it takes a lot of room for those 4 strokes and some full size cruiser bikes dont have much extra room after installing one of them.

your advice about getting some exact deminsions is good advice CF.

The frame size reminds me of a 24" mountain bike frame, which I dont think the four stroke kit will fit in either.

Maybe its a bigger crame than I think it is, but I think with an offset mou ting setup its better sized for a 2 smoker and not the 4 stroke.

Frame does look bigger than a Beast or Dolomite, you could do the jackshaft mount trick to move the chain out away from the tire, or full on jackshaft for a China Girl

If your set on a 4 stroke, you can mount a friction roller over the rear tire.

Someone found a 4 stroke that mounted to the side of the rear tire and put it on a mongoose beast, I think Boygoesfast on eBay sold it to him.

A four stroke internal combustion engine it is then!
There's plenty of bikes in that price range. My bike is a Schwinn Del Mar, and I've been happy with it other than it's slightly small for me (6'1"). Check out Micargi, they have some good stuff. If you can add a couple bucks, and wait for one, buy a used Worksman.
After riding for a while, I really wish I had a Worksman, or custom ground-up built bike. It doesn't take long to get comfortable enough to ride it pretty fast, and you gotta keep in mind your foundation;)
There are lot's of threads here on bikes- "Pre-Motorized Bicycle Information" is your money section.

the 24inch sport bikes are 14inch frames. you need atleast a 16inch frame. i wish they did fit cause the are built alot stronger than typical bikes. they come w disc brakes and not to expensive. i wish a 2 stroke motor w fit but they dont.

the schwinn sounds nice.

The Sun Crusher is a fat tire bike with dual V brakes that will take a 4-stroke.

I put a 2-stroke in mine but a 4-stroke will fit.



A semi fat tire bike the Fito with 3" wide tires will take a 4-stroke as well.



Just other bike options if you want some beef on the road.
