Hi!

I am hoping to install an engine on an old Schwinn bike. It seems like I have a lot of options and I'm not sure where to start...

lots of options out there! easiest start would be a 2 stroke kit and you could be up and running in a few hours. Look around the site here and ask as many questions as you need to! there are a BUNCH of very helpfull and smart people here. Welcome!

Thanks! I'd very much like to install a 4-stroke engine. Would that be a more complex install than a 2-stroke?

i have not YET done a 4 stroke build myself. I do believe from what I have seen that they are a little bit more involved to build but I am sure that you could make it thru with help you would find here. I have heard that they are much more reliable and quiet!

Hello barf welcome! Schwinn is a great bike. I would do some wandering thru the posts to get more info first. These bikes take a beating at high speed. Read some before you act on an older bike.
