Notice! Crazy Horse's 110cc Lifan Stretch Cruiser Build Attempt!

Yes. Thanks for the link.
I am using Southern Cali Custom
for my stuff but will keep them in mind should socal not have a part I need.
Can one of you tell me what the distance is between the rear dropouts on the Limo Frames?
(I am thinking about fitting an internally geared hub on the back) Suppose the dimensions are 110mm. How easy is it to pull the dropouts apart another 10mm to 120mm? (cold set)
Thanks in advance,
Copperchopper

I don't remember the exact dimensions, but it seems like my micargi mustang was about 5 inches(a good 12 inches according to my wife). If you have a scissor jack, like what comes with most cars now, you have the best and easiest to operate frame spreader that I know of. I found that out when installing the heavy duty hub with freewheel and band brake a while back.
Was that photo taken in Maryland?CopperChopper here's a complete brake down including the handlebar size.

Very nice bike, I don't mean to threadjack but are there any other Maryland members? I've seen one guy riding around my town with an MB and a helmet that looks like this:
or this:
I can't remember if it actually has a spike or not.
or this:
I can't remember if it actually has a spike or not.
I'm sure on the inside of the helmet it states, "For Novelty Use ONLY!" I have a couple of helmets like that. I dropped one of them about 5 feet to a concrete floor and it broke in half. Kind of made me think about actually wearing one. Needless to say, I still wear one.
Robertgibbs i purchased a 110cc engine from Ebay:
Specification
- Max. Power: 4.7/7500kW(r/min) Max.
- Torque: 6.5/5500Nm(r/min)
- Compression Proportion: 8.8: 1
- Bore X Stoke: 52mm X 49.5mm
- Min Oil Consumption: 367(g/kw. H)
- Single-cylinder, four-stroke, air-cooled

- Gear: Auto clutch forward only
- Ignition: CDI

his is a short cut to my bike pic would like ideas on how to mount the 110cc because the space in the center is to small for a plate however but the top mounts wolud work if i brace the top and seat poles, open for idea's (robertgibbs)

Robert, you could make the chinese cloned Honda CRF 50cc engine fit,
1. Remove a portion of the Seat Down Tube. Remove only center of seat down tube keeping some of down tube to make a top support for engine and lower portion of Seat Down Tube coming up to right height for skid plate mounting.
2. You could then weld in the Skid-Plate / Engine Mounting Plate. I'd make sure the engine drive sprocket is at same height as rear axle, then with proper height weld skid plate to lower portion of Seat Down Tube you will also have to have another piece of steel tube to support the rear of skid plate.
3. You will most likely have to run your pedal chain under engine, see forum member i-paints Stretch Cruiser build with same type of engine.

Good Luck. C.H.

check this out Mr. CH, you may get more than one i still dont have pic mail down yet
What am I supposed to see Rob? Post again please explain or email me.
Can anyone offer some insight about the Gru-Bee heavy duty dual drive wheels with the band brake aka drum brake?
This heavy duty wheel, when the rear brake is applied contracts (squeeze's the drum), instead of expanding (pushes out on drum), like most drum brake systems do when applied.
1. Have you used them?
2. How's the quality?
3. Which heavy duty wheel did you use the freewheel version for 4-strokes, or did you use the fixed sprocket heavy duty rear wheel version for 2-strokes?
4. I'd like to use these wheels since they are 26" and have the dual drive rear sprockets with band brake ( sometimes mis-referred to as drum brakes ), maybe they can be converted to rear disc brake, these I'm considering for use on my 26" Stretch Cruisers with the cloned Honda 50cc 4-stroke commonly used on ATV's, Dirtbikes, Pitbikes, and the Honda Mini Trail 50's.
Here's a pic of what I'm talking about.
If you have used either the complete heavy duty wheel or the heavy duty axle kit, please post here where you bought it, how much did you spend?
Thanks,
Peace Crazy Horse.
P.S. I have used on my Schwinn OCC Stingray Chopper & XL-Chopper builds, the left hand threaded toothless freewheel sprocket adapter, after spending $300.00 at the local machinist's shop to have 2-hubs done.
Here's a few links for Stretch Cruiser & Chopper builds using the chinese cloned honda crf type 50cc-110cc horizontal 4-stroke ATV / Dirtbike / Pitbike type engines.
What would all these Links be good for if it weren't for BarelyAWake's thread a sort of FYI Builder's thread for those who are contemplating a Stretch Cruiser or Chopper build using a chinese clone Lifan, Loncin, or even a real Honda E-22 horizontal 50cc-110cc ATV, Dirt Bike, Pit Bike style/type of 4-stroke engine, well here's the Link to that one also!

Hey CH. I used the axle kit from bicycle-engines.com, seems like it was around $50. I got the freewheel kit. I have really enjoyed the freewheel and being able to change sprocket sizes without worrying about the sprocket being true, though the brake SUCKS!!! I guess it does help slow you down, some, but I am converting mine to a disc this winter. Absolutely the worst part on my bike is that crappy brake. I guess the quest for me is going to be finding a hydraulic line long enough to reach the rear wheel. Maybe the cable pull disc wouldn't be so bad if I can't find one.
Yeah, I've got two of these HD wheel set-ups, one's the freewheel, the other is the fixed flange sprocket, both are on 4-strokes. Both of them are from Spooky Tooth and both have stainless steel 12G spokes. And yes, the band brake is not a powerful stopper and gets a bit squeeky when the band glazes in time.
Running the 44T fixed on my HS 4G w/11T f/w counter sprocket. Have a 56T on the freewheel hub coming from the 10T EZM tranny. They are strong hubs and axles and I highly recommend you use ss spokes. Cheers!

Thanks for the reply's Civ & Scotto.
I was talking to a forum member last nite on the phone, he said he'd like to find a rear hub that he could use to build his own dual drive heavy duty wheel.
Doe's anyone know of a supplier that sell's the 170mm rear hub that can be used on the Schwinn Stingray OCC Chopper & the XL-Choppers that has the left side ( 5-hole ), setup on the hub for a disc brake or freewheeling toothless sprocket?
Peace Crazy Horse.

Robert, what is the current status for you build. Am I correct you went back to using a chinagirl 2-stroke engine for this build?
