Finished Kick bike

[Scooterbuilder]

Well, I funny think about posting build pictures of my latest kick bike I built. Not anything fancy as I'm just giving it away to a friend of my mother in laws. The kick bike is fairly light weight and the hand brake can easily stop it. 20" bike front half, 3 tube and a 20" front for with a 16" mounted to it. I added a short section of heavy guage pvc to act a a fender. Normally I would mint a kickstand to one of these but my tube layout was too tight to fit one this time. What's your thoughts on this?

Welcome aboard!

Keeping it lightweight is good. The Frankenscoot that I made is heavy, and is best going downhill, even on the flat it's a workout.

The Disc brake is a nice touch! I'm going to build one with a 24" front wheel with a disc brake some day, I have the parts.

I have a pic of my manual pedal one but can't seem to figure out how to attach it.

OK, I had to re-size it to post the pic. 20" rear free wheel searched with a chain to a front sprocket set. I need to change the front gear a bit as it seems a little small. Or, I could really dive in and try to make a 20" 3 speed rear wheel and use a shifter on it.
