Ideas for cranbrook

[Redneckcruisersoftexas]

I have a steel frame huffy cranbrook I finally have running and I have been looking into making it a somewhat road worthy motorcycle. What performance modifications would I need to do this and what safety precautions should I worry about?
Here is my bike as of right now

Wheels, the stock huffy wheels are suspect. I had to replace the rear hub on mine within the first 6 months, my frame has been ok. A lot of people change to mag wheels with disc brakes, much better braking for higher speeds.

Excuse me Greg58. 1). The rear hub: were you running that with the rag joint then the flange, where the spokes fit, separated from the main body of the hub,? and 2). Running the Cranbrook with disc brakes: Are those disc brake adapters witch bolt to the frame strong enough to support disc brake calipers on a motorized bicycle? Thank you.

Sorry I wasn’t clear, I have never run mag wheels or disc brakes. I was referring to guys like Norm of VMB that have built some nice bikes, I’m still using the coaster brake and a front side pull add on.

The best wheels for coaster brake setup? ... $400 a set with the front drum brake... If you call worksman tell them you have a worksman and they can sell you individual parts but it's a waiting list... The last one is a Pug 103 freewheel that I was told about for a Build I'm doing that goes with the worksman front well...
