@@GoPowerSports It’s going in line behind my flat track minibike build that I’m working on now. So far I’ve installed a pit bike front end with original triple tree and shocks, 10 inch wheels and tires like the ones that Cars and Cameras used on their build. Mine however is based on a 909 minibike frame. I’m still debating whether or not to put a rear swing arm on it.

These db30s frames are my jam man. Please manufacture some new ones. The doodlebug (db30s) is the quintessential mini bike. The world is running out, we need more. The Lil Rascal is solid but these fill the void between big wheel and small frame mini bikes.

I know this video is a few years old, but I was wondering what angle you have the fork tube? I can tell there's more angle than original, and it looks great. I have an old Doodlebug in storage that I'm about to resurrect once I finish my son's Manco Streaker build. I'm definitely going to lower the Doodlebug a bit after seeing how sick your build looks. Great job! Beautiful mini!

Sweet build! And I usually don't care much for the doodlebugs. I've asked before on fb and didn't get an answer. Will these wheels accept a 5/8 flange bearing? I like the look of the wheel but I don't want to run 12mm axles.
@GoPowerSports 3 жыл бұрын
They will not, you would need a lathe to open up the wheel to take a standard bearing. We've tried to shove a bearing into this wheel to make it work, but it's way too tight.
