    Bike Steering Neck Tubes

    If you're making a bike from scratch, what do you guys use for the neck tube connected to the steering fork. Cause I made my chopper from scratch, and then I just used a piece of pipe with a bolt through it, and that didn't work too well cause it cracked and warped. So if I wanted to order...

    Sprocket Alignment Issues

    Alright, so I've just put the chain on my new chopper and I've the wheels on and the clutch all hooked up. But I noticed that while I was rolling it, I felt a small change in momentum every now and then. Then I realized when I got home that the sprocket hub is not concentric to the wheel...

    Why Remove the Governor?

    I know this sounds like the most IDIOTIC noob question ever asked, but seriously what is the advantage of removing the governor? :confused: I get that it holds back the lever for accelerating, but is that it? So when you remove the governor you are entitled to a few more RPM's than recommended...

    Lawn Mower Tires For a Mini BIke?

    Is this just unorthodox, or is it feasible? I guess the axles probably could take the rpm's but would it be advisable to use lawn mower tires for my mini-chopper? I'm always trying to come up with alternatives to what is necessary, and instead make do with what is available. So, I was...

    So in one of my previous threads, a group of guys suggested a WHOLE bunch of alternative brake options (not including the stock disc brakes cause I can't get them).

    Installing Axles .. ???

    Hey guys, are "live axles" generally used on mini-bikes--like with the sprocket mounted directly to the axle and the wheel stuck to the axle??? Or is it a "free-floating" axle? Where the sprocket is mounted to the wheel? If you guys use free-floating axles (what I'm using) then how did you...

    Mounting the Sprocket .. Help?
