Over the summer, I am going to make a motorized bike from this fat bike frame https://www.costco.ca/Northrock-XC00-Fat-Tire-Bike.product.100458247.html. I plan on using this bike for off-roading and mountain biking (will be doing heavy riding), as well as just riding around the city. Thus, I am looking for a configuration that is quite well rounded. I want a lighter engine (35cc) because I definitely want to mount it on the back wheel instead of on the frame. I plan on buying a Staton kit. Could you all just give me some general recommendations for me? Could I even do an axle mounted motor like this one http://www.staton-inc.com/store/index.php?p=product&id=371 Would it make sense to do a friction drive? What gear ratio do you recommend?
What sort of configuration would you recommend overall? I plan on definitely using the fat bike specified above, I just don't know what kind of kit to use...
Thank you!
