The "Plug-and-Play" Bikes for 2-stroke china engines thread.

[Salty Gator]

I bought a huffy cranbrook, and the entire install went smooth as ever, despite the horrible installation instructions! Haha.

I was reading in the forum a while back that the CranBoob is a great first build.....ample room for the motor and intake...no frills....blah blah blah....and only 88 bucks at Wally World....they're great learning tools .....and you're right....included instructions with the kit suck goat balls.......

Laters,

Two that are Too Easy
Easy install Gary Fisher Mamba, older model. Tight fit for carb but otherwise it fits perfect. (SBP Kit and motor from Spookytooth) Me

Room to spare Fuji Odessa I think you could put a small pinto engine in it with room for (Livefastmotors 80cc) Mark

Need to include the Schwinn Landmark.....complete *plug-n-play*...119 bucks at Wally World...

Laters,

Thanks,

i just got a trek classic beach cruiser, i was wondering if anyone on here knows about if any mods need to be done to get a good fit

 

[ryan 14]

..There are many threads and posts regarding the Cranboob.....most folks laud them....some don't....but that's my next build...I picked one up from K-Mart brand new...for $70.00.....no I'm not kidding...all black with chrome fenders....waiting now on a Grubee GT5.....later down the road depending on whether or not I deem it doable I will spring the front...and other goodies....but the Cranboob seems to make a good build....

Don't know if anyone mentioned the multitude of diamond framed bikes from the 50's onward...also, any "beach cruiser" from the 50-70 will fit no problem.

Finally, did someone say Cranboob?

Yesh, yesh they did.

I confess....mea culpa...I said it !..that's a fine "Cranboob" you've built up...no one can deny the classic lines they have nor the simplicity of the build itself....hence my next project.....more to come ...stay tuned..same Bat Time....Same Bat channel ! ....

I see that nobody picked a Schwinn Point Beach Cruiser. I hope it works. Just bought it on line for an X-80 kit. Thinking about the Sick Bike jackshaft kit and wanted a multi speed cruiser. I may wish I had selected a steel framed cruiser.

trek 4500 * wuth home made strobe/brake light only thign that didnt work right ( wasnt PnP was hte front mount. a drill bit took care of that.

Any general Trek mountain bike from the 90's should be a decent build. I had like the most generic cheapo one built in 1995 back when I was into biking, and I still have a photographic memory of what that bike looked like (though the model escapes me right now). Woulda made a great fit. Very similar to this bike: http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u92/epicurean_rider/Trek950after-1.jpg

What I haven't seen yet is something hooked up to a GT. They're usually expensive as **** but I bought one used once for $30. Nice comfortable ride for a bike that doesn't have full suspension. Hmm.... wish I still had it. Though it made for nice recycling. Traded it for a broken moped, then parted that out & used the money to buy my BGF kit. lol.

 

[BarelyAWake]

Mebbe not the same "GT" you were thinkin' of, but there's a fully suspended version that's perfect fer a HT - Sick Bike Parts has a pic of one on their homepage;

GT LTS full suspension frame

There's even one being sold in 'Swap and Shop' (for now)... which is a shame (for me) 'cause I was lookin' fer a 90's GT for almost a year lol, now I've got a different dream

i have an old ross perfect fit huge frame

 

[hambro]

I have a Trek Cruiser sittin in the garage now. Absolutely perfect bike with plenty of room, it's also a large bike for us bigger fellas.

 

[weekend-fun]

Most pre-war/post-war/vintage womens frames are sturdy and can fit motors. Just got to get a tank, which isn't hard to make, and you can buy them.

Micargi Falcon is Plug and Play. With the extra rear mount it drops right in with plenty of room. It looks like it grew there.

Anybody ever tried the Shogun Safari or Northwoods Men's Belle Aire, both by Kent and seen at Meijer and Target?

Kent Bicycles - Adult Bikes

I'd love to find a bike similar to the GT LTS, with dual/full frame suspension and no worries about riding over bumps and breaking a frame. Seeing posts of broken Schwinn Point Beach Cruisers (frame and fender) really has me kinda scared...

Thanks for any help!

Great thread!

Anyone know what front mount size is needed for the schwinn delmar? Planning on getting a mount from sbp but not sure what size.
