Hello again,

I just finished building my motorized board track bike. It started with a womans Huffy mountain bike and then surgery began... I just have to do some minor chain adjustments and such but otherwise it's a blast to ride. Hope to see you riding!

I'm confused to since it looks like there's a chainring on the right and cog on the rear wheel on the left.

I think one side is for peddling and the other is the motor chain-drive side?

Yep turksayler, it is a coaster brake hub with the cog on the right side and a 44 tooth sprocket attached to the other side. The sprocket side is connected to the motor. I have the chains on, just not an updated picture.

I agree, and video would be awesome. I'm trying to refine mine to look like yours but I'm pretty sure I can't fit those tires. It turned out just amazing.

Any more news on a boardtrack meet?

I'm trying to figure out how one became the other. About the only thing that looks like it came from the Huffy is the stem. Is that somehow the same frame bent and chopped and welded?

Is your seat working out? Got any modifiations to come? I'm starting a second boardtrack and hope to add gaers and a jockey shift. We'll see what happens.

You must be out riding instead of forums, don't blame you there. I hope you can get some video, it would be cool to see the racer in action.
