    DIY full Suspencion Build Need help with pivot point?

    The trailing arms would have to be a tapered fit. Been holding a Square taper one in my hands for awhile lol. I have to assume that any of these crank arms regardless of style would always need a puller to remove. Finding a machine shop to do it just upped my bill prolly 300 dunno? Yeah I know...

I put bearing housing in my google search and that opened new windows and possibilities. Thanks! Still looking. I would like to find something generic...

    DIY full Suspencion Build Need help with pivot point?

    Thanks for the replies guys. The 4x4 axle are you referring to this? As for the Skate board bearings I just don't trust 5/16 bolt. Was thinking one pivot spot on about a 5/8 or bigger bolt. I keep looking and eventually post what I find. Here are some interesting bearings...

    DIY full Suspencion Build Need help with pivot point?

    I have Googled forever now. I weigh 240 pounds at 6 foot tall. I am looking at building a full sus motorized. The classic plastic bushing on a walmart bike is way too cheezy. I really want a needle bearing pivot point for a in frame motor. I wanna build a bike from scratch and have a single two...

    Hello

    Very cool thanks! Works like a charm! Now I will go through and clean it up! A sad thing about this bike for me is that the seat post utilizes a tiny short pipe :( Not good with my stature. I will stare at this thing in my living room for a month making up my mind. I will have everything...
