i plan to put a motor on this eventually for my younger son lil eddie. it's a 24" department store bike that i put a 20" fork and 20" wheels on. like most of my builds, it will get a bent seat post installed also. i might switch out this fork for a shock fork w/ v-brake mounts - especially if it's gonna get a motor.

20's on a 24. me like. what s the crank arm length? I like it. should be a fun bike for him.

crank arms are about 6", i'll probably keep the chainring and put shorter cranks on it, that'll leave more room for the motor. the more i look at it's profile the more im leaning toward cutting the seat tube flush with the top tube and mounting the seat on the rear seat stays

that would be the ideal thing. do it, lets see what it will look like.
