Talking Hello from sunny florida!!

(It rained actually today).
Nevertheless, I am very interested in added a gas chain saw engine to propel my 26" dual suspension MB.
I crossed this site, and after registering I found that everyone seems to be very nice and extremely helpful.
Thanks!

haha. Yeah, I feel like since it already drives a chain... I don't know.

This is a picture of my bike. Also I wish to keep the MB qualities: extra knobby tires and the ability to go off-road. Therefore, I have concluded that the only type of mounting stlye would be rear (or maybe front) mounted chain or belt. Like at golden eagle kits.
How do you feel?
Thanks,

Welcome

I agree you made a good decision in joining this fine forum.

You may want to check out the "Riquimbili" threads as you live so close to Cuba
LOL. (those are Cuban home built motor bikes with amazing enginuity...not to mention their daring to nic generator motors etc from Soviet Tanks and other field equipment)

I believe you will see some photos of "non standard" uses of power equipment
adapted to bicycles from there here in the forum.

Enjoy !
