Hello my name is Brandon Gaudet and I own a zoombicycle kit. I've had it for two weeks now and ride it to work every day. I'm living in edmonton alberta for the time being. the only mod so far is to the baffle in the exhaust i've cut it off with the hack saw to allow more flow. I would love to offer service to these bikes in my area and have already been requested to help friends build one for themselves.

My bike i started with is the west coast chopper special that you used to see at zellers but not anymore. I bought the 80cc stealth black kit along with the racing carb, centrifugal clutch and pull-start. The engine didn't fit perfectly straight outta the box so it took some brain storming.

I had to custom mount the front and put in a piece of round stock threw the seat mount for the back. The sprocket was a challenge as well due to the wideness of the tire it would rub on the tire wall. so i put three of the torsion rubbers on the outside of the wheel spokes and one on the inside. The engine sits so low to the ground that the exhaust would hit the ground so i mounted it upside down. It is very cool looking with the original drive sprocket mounted on the front forks. Starts first pull and gets a lot of looks and comments around town.
