My First Motorized Bike

Uncategorized

This is my first attempt at a motorized bike. It was more fun to build than to use as transportation. It was loud, smelly, and made me seem even weirder… or was it the Evel Kneivel jump suit?

Buzz Bomb v1
The earliest version. This was used for my 5 mile commute. This version has no basket and only has the coaster brake.

Buzz Bomb v1.1
This is the latest version with alloy rims, decent tires and front brakes. These upgrades made commuting almost seem safe. At least the bike felt safe, the other commuters are still ding-dongs.
