  • first off good video, best one ive seen on attaching a motor to a bike but ........

    1. the bike weight is now off center because of where the motor is placed

    2 the power of the motor isn't reflected because of the way it drives the bike.... the whole roller on the tyre is a horrible idea.

    3.if i do decide i want to pedal im pulling extra friction becuse the motor pushes down on the tyre.

    4. if the motor stops or dies on a hill do i have to get off the bike and pull start again?

  • @SHITONASTICK1100 You're wrong about all 4 of your points......do some research and you'll discover this is one of the best kits out there. Check the motorized bicycle forums and eductate yourself before being so negative.

  • wat if u pull the throttle instead of brake wen u see a car

  • @austin76674 You'd be screwed

  • very nice ... you make it look easy to install. both the #1 and #2 were great. Thanks.

  • @meehandyman Thank you....the kit was just redesigned to allow for the conversion to a chain drive system. Check out our website for details on this exciting new combo kit.

  • where did u get that

  • This was very nostalgic to me. My father had a similar motor back in the late 40s which he used to travel to work for several years (in the UK). It was called a Powerpak and was 49cc. It had no clutch but instead a lever on the handlebar operated by cable a device to lift the motor off the tyre. A special tyre with steel reinforced carcase and thick rubber was used as standard cycle tyres were not man enough. I well remember him speeding off with our dog chasing behind and barking furiously.

  • Woah! Check out gasbike.com too! they have some pretty cool stuff.

  • this is sick good ! I want to make this ! :)

  • Why do I keep getting. Flat tires on the rear with rear friction. Help

  • i can pedal faster, with no legs >:

  • like the sound of that.

  • What does a system like this cost?

  • Respond to this video... where to buy this. i live in Canada in NL someone help byy

  • @jb1970ny bahaha
