So then i have been doing this build for a while now and finaly getting around to doing a build thread.
It all started with an impulse facebook market place buy (as they all do!)
And i managed to get in quick enough to snap up this beauty (doggo not included):
From the start i fancied turning it into a eBike but knew it would be a pretty long road as there weren't even brake mounts on the frame and a few other bits needed so i started to sort them out first.
Banana seat and sissy bar to start
Looking pretty fly up in the whistler mountains!
After this i had to start sorting the wheels and tires out, the tires were letting out air and the rear wheel had a coaster brake which wouldn't work for an eBike conversion. The original plan was to go for a rear motor but the frame isn't wide enough so i then decided to go for a front motor (has now changed to mid drive) the motor i was eyeing up was this one so i went with a rear wheel of the same style.
Managed to find a rear wheel of the same style with threads both sides on fleebay all the way from china :thumb:
WILL BE UPDATING MORE LATER
