20" Micargi Hero build

[akumu]

totally stoked that I got it in the mail. Got un-stoked when I tried to fit my 80cc chinese motor (from zoom bicycles bought in 2008-9) and would not fit. I think this is the intro forum....but I am spanking new. Any help?

These examples are cool, but I wanna go with a quieter 4 stroke rear wheel friction bike. When I was a kid I rode on a Solex friction moped. Beyond cool.

Has anybody made a rear wheel friction drive out of a hero removing the long saddle assembly utilizing a springer style solo saddle? Pioneers get shot.

I have seen one member turn his 1970s schwinn stingray into an e-bike, storing his batteries under the banana seat.
The only motorized 1970s styled motorized stingrays I have seen have 2 stroke engines mounted in the frame.
if you want to use a 4 stroke HS engine, I would try to find a banana bike with 24" wheels.
