Thanks for watching :)

My first motorbike was a blast, got into 2cycle motors for 7 ys, I've switched too a 4 stroke, stock Phatmoto All Terrain, motor bike, Wish I'd got into them sooner!, there coming down on there price's, you can even just get frame, which to me is a beefed up frame, dam near no vibration feels like being on a ATV on 2 wheels to be honest I have 40 t rear sprocket I've hit 50 after break in, but 40 is best speed for long runs, stay safe

[@shtboxgarage]

Those fancy frames look cool but I'm a little top cheap to invest in something like that for this hobby, plus I like finding interesting bicycles (not that those arent, just ones that not many people see lately) As far as speed, thats exactly the range I'm shooting to be capable of. I wouldn't want to cruise at 50 but having the capability to do so would be nice for roads with higher speed limits & have the power to cruise at 30-40. Not a fan of being too in the way of traffic

Yeppp that's facebook for ya. People who have no idea and threw together their first bike, first issue happens and they don't feel like fixing it. For these basic bikes marketplace is garbage

[@AveragePicker]

Dont buy? ...but it works. Just needs some tlc

[@shtboxgarage]

This bike is quite unsafe without a lot of TLC, I got it running with one part but 1. Sounds like metal is contacting in the motor 2. Sprocket is very misaligned on wheel and 3. The derailers (shifters) were so beaten that they couldn't be used. After I open the motor, clean it up, and put it on another bike I will have a good deal but for the inexperienced I wouldn't recommend getting a bike that isn't from a reputable builder

Same i was a newbie beacouse i was used to my 4 stroke pit bikes so i bought it and the pole that the back of the moter was litrally beaten to fit the motor and surely broke after couple of rips exhaust was chopped of so reccomend buying new ​@shtboxgarage

It fits well with the title of your channel!

[@shtboxgarage]

Thank you, I have a liking for things that leave me stranded 😎

[@leonardarola]

100 bucks is great for a box of spare parts.

[@bonitajester3034]

Moterbike Mike here, It sounds like your drive sprocket isn't centered on the back rim

[@Littleevil9975]

I was just about to say that same thing bro fun hobby you have a channel also

[@shtboxgarage]

I'm scrapping the bike & wheel to build my Schwinn cruiser with that motor for my buddy, gonna make sure everythings set up right for him but the chain staying on the sprocket was enough for me to verify this engine runs first😅 The person who built this bike did not do a very good job, I'm suprised they rode it at all. I changed a lot of other stuff to make it semi ride-able like putting the clutch on the correct side and not having one of the brake levers facing towards the rider next to the throttle, should've mentioned that too at the beginning.

[@davidotto7666]

That is why I buy brand new engine kits and I build my own bicycles this way I don't get ripped off😅

[@leonardarola]

100 bucks? great for a box of spare parts.

[@Belt3436]

Clutch is improperly adjusted

[@shtboxgarage]

Yes it is, update video coming soon

[@michaelhart5087]

Don't buy a motorized bike in general. Get a E-bike instead. they actually work.

[@shtboxgarage]

They are much more reliable but 1. Not nearly as much range 2. Much more expensive and 3. I don't get to fix them because they don't break (yes that's a downside) If you know what you're doing and take time with the build these bikes can be reliable, it just requires a lot of work breaking and fixing weak links to get there

[@holydonutz]

Ebikes are for practicality gas bikes are cheap unreliable but fun

[@kingti85]

An E Bike is still a motorized bicycle, but I agree w you - don't buy a gas bike, build it instead

[@SoLoCruizer]

Deeezam

[@DogsaladSalad]

For 60 bucks you ought to have just saved your money and got a new kit for a few bucks more

[@darkkonblackblade6161]

ALLWAYS BUY AND BUILD URSELF.......IT REALLY NOT THAT HARD!

[@justincase4339]

Lol I seen that bike too but!$60 I would of took it fix it sale it for $100 the proper way smh

[@shtboxgarage]

Originally I bought this thinking I'd flip it for a decent profit but I wouldn't wanna sell this bike to someone, the motor would be so much better on any other frame
