I wonder what type of motor that's hanging on there? I saw a youtube video of a better excuted creation using a similar set up with such a motor, and it seemed to have a lot of torque.
The video showed a front chainring attached to a freehub w/ disc brake mounting holes.
PO claimed to have gotten it up to 50MPH. Anything close to that would have been one scary ride. Stopping from that speed would have been treacherous.
My dream is this peach has a flip flop hub, won't know til I pull the rear wheel. Certainly the rear hub does not match the crappy stamped steel front hub. Most likely someone just drilled a couple random holes in the hub and attached that drive sprocket. We'll have to see.
