How about 2 Cycle
Yea another of my China toys
I got this one to hang on the back of the cab for cruising around on my 34 hour DOT resets. Not really a small bike go's 35MPH and I manage over 100 miles on a mixed tank. I don't drive for SWIFT no more. also classified as a bicycle in New Mexico. Just like the Hawk it has a poorly made carb that will make screwdrivers cry.. |

Now that looks real nice! I built one a few years back from an old Huffy Bike.

Nice beach cruiser, bobber there. Jerry . I was on the road busy at the time so I had a guy in Tucson Az. build mine. It has been lots of fun and I enjoy the rides. Everyone seems to enjoy seeing it when I run down the main strip.

Thanks, I don't have it anymore. I was out riding it one day and a guy flagged me down to take a look at it. The guy offered me $550 cash for it so took the money and walked home lol. I think I had about $125 tied up in it. The bike was given to me. I have another bike sitting in the shed I will probably build later on.

The Mongoose Dolomite Fat Tire bike would probably be the best one to work with.

The trick I use there on Alibaba. When it says more then one is I contact them asking if I can buy a sample. They then let me buy just 1 and it is generally of good quality unless it's damaged in shipping. Sneaky, Sneaky...

That's a cool looking bike. That's petty sneaky lol. I wonder what the shipping would cost?

Should be around $150 no EPA or Certificate of Origin. If you got one unit it would be hard to decide on a color at least for me it would. I think I'd have to do that old school Indian blue in the bottom pic. You could always message they will give you an accurate quote. Soon I will have one in my living room the other spends a lot of time in the kitchen by the back door.

I missed that picture. Yes the Blue looks good. Can't wait to see it. It looks like it has da drum brake for the front. Not crazy about the rear caliper brake. Would need to convert that to disk or drum for the rear.

It's possible to have it built that way. Reading the bottom it seems they also do custom builds. Let me get back on the road in a month and I will get one mostly just as a show piece. I am already retired, kids grown so my checks now days go for toys. and to get the wife's hair did.

Motorized bicycles are awesome if you have roads nearby with suitable speed limits (40 mph or less). I have built a few of those. You never stop changing them. Always improvising parts designed for other things. I may have to build another, now that I live in an area where the roads are more suitable for motorized bicycles. For me, they are just plain fun.
