I built this many years ago.
I started with a $110 Canadian Tire single speed bike. I added the girder forks, front drum brake, headlight, seat, rear rack, leather panniers and a 60cc two stroke kit; all from Ebay. Assembled in my kitchen and living room.
After years of riding around town dodging cops, it is being relocated to Pineview where I can tear up the country roads.
The cheap bicycle wasn't built for the stress of an engine and cruising along at 40 km/hr and the rear bearings have failed before. They failed again. I was actually riding it in this condition. No bearings left on the left side (engine drive sprocket), and a couple missing from the right side.
Put back together and ready to rip. The bearing race is damaged on the left side. I just packed it well with grease and tightened it up. Hopefully, just like playing bass, it'll find its "groove."
Peace & extra Grease, Dennis
