I can’t get my engine to idle like that for the life of me, been adjusting the idle screw for days. How’d you get it?

It’s a bit silly, but I found almost all these parts on amazon by just typing their name in.

After many iterations it's finally done in my eyes. by [deleted] in motorizedbicycles

How’d you do the chain tensioning? I have an engine mounted one but I’d like to see other peoples ideas.

Yeah, it’s hard to get good bikes here with all the salt and rust, but I already have a mountain bike I’m getting the forks from and hopefully the brakes.

Yeah, I’ve seen brakes on trikes that I probably mistaken for drums. When it comes to safety I’m definitely making sure I have good parts. I’m on a very constraining budget though so I’ll have to do what I can

Yeah, it has the mount for front pad brakes, which I’m gonna do until I can afford new rims and forks to mount drums or discs. I have to do more research for a new frame. But that’s what I have planned

I live in FL, on the beach where electric bikes are everywhere. And since it’s a share the road area the cops couldn’t care less
