Headed to buy a chain drive bike in th morning.

Found a bike that needs a little work but it has a mad max chain drive on it and some other nice options. If it's decent I will buy it and bring it home to clean up and get running again. I'll post pictures once I get back with it.

I don't understand the strut deal but I have a set of shocks for it. I figured for 3K I couldn't go wrong.

the struts are for drag racing

I think Paul( mad max) gave everyone that converted their bikes to chain a set of struts , I know I had a set with mine. Maybe he had some progressives on it i he didn't want to let go of the bike

What he really should have given them w/struts is a pair of kidneys because you're soon gonna need 'em!:rofl_200:

What gearing f/r does the conversion come-with?
