Hello, from Canada.
I was just browsing the website and stumbled across this conversation.
That is a nice bike.
I also sell bicycle engine kits for people to install on their own bikes…I ship world wide.
My engines are 2-stroke (mixed petrol and oil), 80cc, and my top speed is 57 km/h. My average fuel use is about 100 km per liter of petrol (gas).
Take a look at my website for more information. I answer all inquiries as quickly as possible.
Thanks
