Hi everyone. A few years back my grandson wanted a mini bike so we built one from a kit I bought on line. After a few weeks of watching him ride, my daughter insisted he not go alone, he asked me why I don't build one for me? Then we could ride together.
Well that's what I did. It had to be bigger since I am six foot two tall. We have been riding for the past two years. Last fall he decided he would like to try a go cart. I picked up a used rolling chassis/frame and switched drive components from the mini bike to the go cart. Now I must admit I wouldn't mind a go cart too. I cannot fit on his Vintage Manco cart. My knees are almost in my face. How common are adult sized frames? Can any one suggest manufacturers names? I have looked at several used frames here in NC but the distance from the seat to the peddles is always around 34-35 inches. I am guessing I would need around 40 to be somewhat comfortable. Thanks in advance for any input.
