thats pre cool what are the wheels ??

 

[chidley]

i think its pretty ace to be honest, costs what? £100 max to make one? never go wrong, and free to go out and have a laugh with your mates on as many times as you like, reminds me of my Go-Ped days

Wheels you have a choice of sack barrow wheels, nice and cheap if its a once in a while thing, the bearings arent up to much, or we run go kart wheels with sealed bearings, the sack barrow wheels are less than half the price, but in the long run, if your gunna use it a lot go for some sealed bearings!
yer a cheap ones less than £100, our first few cost less than £30!!

im just trying to source an old bmx or can you use a mountain bike frame or is it too big
im going to use sack barrow wheels at forst then if all goes well get kart wheels it looks like FUN
And my mum says boys dont grow up so why dissapoint her LOL

 

[Mini_Ron]

you can, but the front wheel really wants to be no bigger than 20" some of the USA and NZ chaps use 16" wheels!
yer your mums right there!

built my nephew one last month, all the bits including the bike cost me £45 and that's using the indoor go kart front wheels.... great laugh came down the hill by his place and some how managed to slam it in to the bank, I ended up sat on the bank with the trike sat on me!! LOL

Hoping to get up the damn with my bro over the weekend to see if we can kill our selves with the drops on the side of the road.... what could possibly go wrong!!

Jono

whats the best welder to use a mig or arc as ive got access to a mig and got myself a frame now time to start chopping

 

[jonofd3]

I used an arc, but with the light weight tube used on a BMX it was bit of a pain!! defo use a mig if I do another one!

 

[EddieR]

[narcotic]

i have an abundant supply of seats!

 

[Mini_Ron]

i use a plastic school seat, but the choice is endless!!
go kart seats hold you in a bit topo snugg, but it might work for you, if it does then use it!
