Values in a motorized bicycle

[THSeaMonster]

What are the attributes you strive for in the next build (if you havn't built your dream yet) I am going by durability and reliability. Thats why I have chosen a morini engine for the durability and a direct single speed drive for reliability along with a badass chromoly fixie (gonna have to change the fixie part) hehe

1. Quality -do it right or not at all. Motor/frame/components, get the good stuff.
2. Safety -proper brakes, no crappy welds, no substandard components, wear safety gear, etc
3. Style -if it doesn't look cool, why bother?
4. Cost -it has to make sense, shopping for deals is half the fun
5. Fun factor -its all about the build, the build should be challenging, it should push your abilities and you better learn something. If it doesn't, you built the wrong bike

Re: Values in a MB

I agree with everything. I hope a front disc brake will suffice :/ I agree with 5 the most.
