Hi everyone....I just discovered this site, although I've been considering a motorized bike- just for fun- for a while now.

I had been considering building a non motorized stretch cruiser, but while looking around on this site, I saw motorized ones....WOW. I'm a mechanical hack, but I've got a friend in Phoenix who'd probably be able to help me out in exchange for some beer ;-)

One question I have is this....is it possible to have a motorized bike with 24" wheels? The ones I've seen so far all have 26" wheels. If anyone has some motorized stretch bike pics to motivate and inspire, I'd love to see them. Thanks for having me!

welcome from FH

no problem using a 24" wheel...
but, a smaller wheel size might make the frame rather tight to fit an engine
