Well this is what mine looks like... It's a Walmart Next Tiara frame , with 20" wheels, and Big Apple 2.35 tires..I put the Quest 20" chainstay on the kit.. The motor is 500/600 w , 50 amp controller, 36v sla battery ( 3x12v ) Top speed 19mph, range i think about 25/28 miles.. I said I think ,I...

KIdneyboy... I sent you a PM

Tom K... The idea is to have the top bar no higher than the top of the wheels, and even lower if you can.. you can adjust the rear suspention spring to help lower it some.. 24" or 26" doesn't really matter, the same rule still applies.. The 26 " bike would give you a little more room in the...

Tom K ... Here is one pretty much like it ... it's a mongoose MGX .. The top bar looks to be about the same hieght.. I always thought it was a little high, but the bike rode & handled real well ... I put alot of miles on it like the picture... Good luck.... Bill

Doug ! Cruzvair it is ... I like that.. Yup It's rear engined, and also air cooled :)... Say could you tell me what that riser is that is on your Son's TIARA ? The one mounted on the tellie tube ... It's kind of like mine, but yours comes up strait.. I'm Posting a pic of the SHORT...

Hey Buyagain.. Ya know what would be really cool is this bike with your 4 stroker on the back wheel... Wadayathink? :P By the way , I've been having lots of fun on my E cruz lately .. how are your bikes working out ? I posted some pix in the Kit conversion brag board, assist thread the other...

Currystomper ! I'm sorry I diddn't mean to send that last post like I did , I thought Doug wrote that.. Ha! can't wait to hear from Doug!! Any how I think the rounders would be my joyce .. Good luck with your conversion Bill

Hey Doug!! What do you mean the final change? Is there such a thing? Looks like the north rounders would give more knee room, but you say they didn't work out for you .. Do you still have the riser on the Telle tube, or is this on the Red bike.. Or have I lost count.. I have the wide cruzer...

Hi ! Just orderd a short chainstay from Maria for my 20" wheel electric Tiara cruz..Should have it end of wk ,or first of next ..I'll post a pic to compare with the above pix, and let you know how this works out...Bill

Hey Fohn T ... That was fast... YA i can rattle the can or kick it :lol: Thanks for the reply .. I will check it out in the morn... Bill

Tiara E- Cruzbike Really a poor mans quest :) John T , Doug ! I have a question .. If I put a short chainstay on , could I expect a 22" B/B or lower ? It is now at 25".. I guess what I am asking is , how much shorter is the short chainstay than the original Kit stay.. I'm also...

John T ! Thanks for the info.. The tire size isn't the problem I thought it was .. A 559 with 20" wheels, I have big apple 2.25 tires on the shelf ,, or someplace.. I have an 05 Rans V2 going on local Kraigs list.. Nanda H.. Nice pictures. great help ! Ya all take care ...

Hey ! things are looking up ,as far as tire size .. As I see it a 559 or 451 quest with 406 wheels could take a 2" or more tire width, even with the short chainstay. What happend to the 1.0 max??? Am I missing something?? Bill

Ya steve... I believe John T said 26x1.0 max for the quest, in his above post.. Bill

John T.. Thanks for the reply .. I'm hoping for a Quest Capable of wide tires.. I am thinking of a rear 20" hub motor... My Idea is the extra unsprung weight ,( motor & batterys) wouild best be handled with wider tires.. Hey Doug! .. I had thought about the things you brought up. A...

John T... Do you have a QUEST frame set kit in mind, unpainted even for us tinkerers that have many more wheels than we have bikes ?? I guess what i'm saying is a bike w/o wheels... Thanks Bill

Assist subclass has my vote..Gas or electric.. Going to be off the computer for 2 weeks ... See ya all latter.. take care Bill

Doug ... I didn"t make it very clear.. I should have told you i was thinking of putting the Cruz kit on this configuration, with the stem adaptor comming up from the bottom of the steerer rather than on top by the handel bars .. The 20" motor wheel would be on the rear, and the 20" Capprio...

Doug & John T.. I was also thinking of running the tellie tube out the bottom of the steering tube with the same adapter as on top .. I have a 20" wheel with Caprieo hub 21"-106" gear range ... See my posted pic above.. Maybe leg problems with the fork, just thought of that.. Wadayathink...

Buyagain I do like your bike, and the belt & pulley set up with centrifucal clutch .. My friction drive project was never anything more than an excuse to get my hands durty :) As far as range , we all know gas is the winner.. I think it all comes down to the type of riding one wants, or...
