Taking a look at springers for motorized bicycle on the street.
Springers really shouldn't be used for any off road use.
Thats what triple tree suspension shocks are for lol.
Triple tree springer forks from www.3gbikes.com - Auta a dopravní prostředky
The price of those forks is ridiculous, these motorized-bikes are just a hobby too me, I couldn't ever bring myself to spend that kind of money on a set of bicycle forks, lol, thanks for sharing Alex.
thanks for saving me some money and hassle. I was going to try those bent springers until I saw what 3g has
Ah, 3G is awesome! I was getting parts CHEAP back in '06 from the owner when he had a shop on Pine Avenue in Long Beach. GREAT high speed tires and disc brakes and cool frames and parts for sure!
I bought this frontend from your show its the bomb man and theride is awsome
VERY good to know about that "sway" - don't need any sway over 20mph! Whew!
Do they have these for the worksman bikes? Planning a board race bike....
Can those forks fit in a firm strong beach cruiser bruiser?
Hey Alex I just turned video up on CZcams what happened to Maya motor got a z l ride in it was truly running on that motor what kind of motor was running and what brand but it's done hope you have a good Easter
Would it be possible to find regular bicycle forks that will fit w mini bike?
Do you have any of the forks still? Im re-viving my board track tribute. I like watching older videos and seeing where the sport has progressed.
Wicked Stretched Bike. Love Those Fork,s.
I put my 3G forks on motorized stretched cruiser and seem to have a balance issue?did your friend have any problems with hus build
Who makes a threaded chrome triple tree fork with suspension? 26” beach cruiser
I have a recently acquired a motor for a bicycle not sure what size it is or what kind it is if I would like to send you pictures of it to you maybe you can tell me I have looked at the inside of is loose like it's in good condition if you would please get back to me and let me know what you think
Daaang !That is really Sweet.I thought'crap,it has to be a Grand or more,'when you pulled it up.Now you have me thinkin..Been looking into Rokshox(know it's not spelled that way,but why advertise)to build a hybrid cruise/retro.Those are just 'The Thing' tho.Thnx
Got mine installed just waiting for my rear tire to het back from shop so i can test them out
Those triple tree forks would work fantastic with a drum style brake!
Will it fit a Schwinn Stingray chopper bicycle
so are the air suspension shocks from gasbike any good? never really liked the look of the springer on my mtb, i dont understand what you meant by the side to side movement at high speeds, i understand countersteering from motorcycles and all but could you please explain it more, thank you love your vids
The spring will cause the bike to bounce on turns
Nirve front end?
Ill have triple tree sprinng fork its work very well!!!!
That's a bad whammer jammer. Got to get one.
Washers help the "side to side" on bent forks. I've been runnin this set up for a year now, been clocked by my buddy following me at 53mph. Kinda sketchy, lol, but I'm a pro Haha. I also live on dirt in Anza CA, so VERY helpful. Just some inexpensive hardware tho, will remedy bent fork issues...
Could you please tell me how you used the washers to stop side to side sway on the springer front end bent forks. Want to use those on my build but don’t want sway. Pictures would be great. Did you use the low rider bent or the standard bent springer?
I want to get them springer fork ...so what link do i have to look up
They have them on Amazon.
Those forks would look good on a Seattle stretch ebike.
But there like 600 bucks
Hey, what absorbs motor vibrations better carbon fiber frame or aluminum frame or steel or does these vibrations have any effect on the on quality of the ride?
Road or engine vibration?
Big M what I have found is that rubber works best take an old tube and put a piece between any mount and the frame it won't stop the vibration so much as localize it
Get a balanced crank engine!!
@motoredlife what happened to your online store?
No products at the moment so i just shut it off. I only have metal lined gaskets and two engines stands left. Email me at MotoredLife@GMail.com
Awesome 👍💪
I wanna get a motorized bike so bad, but in Wisconsin you have to be 16 and have a license to ride one,im 15 and it sucks so much. While i'm waiting i watch motorized bike videos, I love yours lol, you keep doing what your doing man.
Thanks for watching!
LuckyLiar I live in Minnesota where motorized bike laws are the same as Wisconsin and am 14 years old and I ride motorized bikes all over
It's a fun expensive hobby
doesn't suck just stack your money do research build your new ride and ride safe.
You can still ride one it’s legal, as long as you say it’s 49cc and you do NOT carry your ID with you, you will be fine, just stay off main roads
where in the us do you live?
IL
Were do you buy the engines?
Depends i only sell zeda80 triple 40s on my bikes.
Check out BicycleMotorWorks.com for good engines and service
Or ZedaMotorSports.com for crazyness just takes time to get the parts.
How do we know your not from gasbike.net? can you do a review/comparison of a motor from Zeta and motor from gasbike?
Because gasbike.com is straight crap. I can get kit to show you its not worth it.
man I want to believe in this again. that Lorenzo guy from gasbike killed it for us, besides the crap they sell.
Check out BicycleMotorWorks.com for good engines cheap with good service
Or ZedaMotorSports.com for crazyness just takes a loong time to get the parts.
Can we each get the same engine set up and do a build off? I'd like to make vids of the build process and the test ride to post here.
thanks you just saved me 50 bucks.
Monarch???
They bounced because the angle of the down tube should have put a longer crown on to kick the wheel out
BAM! That's a bad Mo Fo!
Damn that blue bike gonna be dope
01:30 Man I want that frame but with fat tires on it.
Do you sell 🏍 ?
No I don’t sorry
The hell are you talking about? I've got those Monark forks and have no issues with corners. If they aren't working for you, you don't have them tightened well
I got the 212cc on my xxl firmstrong an the spring you talk about was bad is not but I do understand when you say it bounce but not bad at all if you no how to ride it
Oh, btw DON'T use the Hyper frame. I'm using a vintage Huffy frame that's steel, because my Hyper frame cracked in half when I was removing my first motor for maintenance...so basically, engine mounts held bike together for who knows how long because, I didn't know until I started loosening bolts and the frame fell apart. Aluminum JUNK! Steel, or ANY alloy that ISN'T aluminum is a MUST for safety!
Good to know just checked my hyper frame and the POS is cracked! Good looking out! 🤘👍
It doesn't look like they have that fork anymore
My guy may have bought them all. Think he has two now and I have two
@@MotoredLife I put a 125cc motor on a stingray chopper bicycle and I need suspension if I want it to last a long time. It's either find one online or Fab it myself.
@@MotoredLife I'm looking for this heavy duty Springer fork, do you know who makes or sells these anymore, or anyone who has one that would sell?..I messaged 3gbikes which seems to be closed now, and asked about them, and they said they did some spring cleaning and had one left, but now I can't get a hold of them
Super heavy springer fork, think I will stick with Rock Shock or RST. $399 plus s&h would buy a okay bicycle. $1500 could buy a used Honda Rebel much better than illegal 66cc motorized bike.
Oh yeah ill take even a Suntour 130 for good shocks. This one is just for looks.
Bang booom! 3G springer fork! Wow ! That's exactly what I thought and bought one - and installed it - and tried it - and... boom! Not happy ! Not happy at all guys. But why ??? Well, it actually handled pretty well, even at high speeds. But don't even think of puting a disc brake on it. Hey what? But that's what you kind of want to do if you put a motor on your bike, right? Well, yeah. And there is a mount for it right? Yes, but trust me, just DON'T PUT A DISC BRAKE ON THAT THING! If you want to put it on your cruiser and curise at 5 mph, go for it, great choice, great looks,,, everyone will adore your bike. But when I first did some, even less than a serious braking,, the whole fork went up and jumped like a horse and I thought it would break. Well, short conclusion - don't trust a fork that has a disc brake mount on the rocker. Have a look at any other motorbike chopper fork and you'll find out how that brake mount is supposed to be made. This one from 3G is faulty by design... sorry to say that. Don't let them fool you. They fooled me...
Really?! That sucks. I have a drum brake
That's fine if you don't get that problem with a drum brake. I think it's just a question of how the braking force is transfered to the rocker and what it does with it. I saw that motorbike springer forks have the brake mount attached to the back leg of the fork. That eliminates the transfer of braking forces to the rocker, thus the problem is solved. I just have my 3G fork down in the basement thinking about what to do with it. Maybe I'll figure out how to modify it. But until then, it'll be just siting down there...
Did you have any balance issues with yours ? I do
Answer.... without a doubt is " The one you build yourself ( "Talk about bad taste in design.......)
Why don't you make a real beauty ,and put a real engine in that bike. A honda, Subaru, or even a predator would be better than a chinesieum engine.
hello hun yeah ikr
Dude
