A Custom-Built Moon Motorcycle
« on: October 04, 2022, 05:33:26 PM »
Couldn't they just buy an-e bike off the shelf and go faster while saving a ton of money.  They'd also be smaller and lighter.   :tongue: :grin: :grin:

I'm sure there are reasons why an off the shelf E bike won't cut it on the moon. Start with those very wide wheels.

Yer going to want to run some pretty low tire pressures.
Plus, the chain lube (and every other lube) is going to boil off.

But yeah, building custom is more fun for sure!
