Building a mini bike

[hojuw]

I am wanting to build an off road mini bike and was wondering if anyone can tell me names of some sitesthat woyld give me some helpful info. Thanks

Would it be cheaper/better to buy a used xr50? Whould a xr50 make a good mini bike to just ride arround on? How well would it perform and pull me up some hill because I weigh 170lbs.

yeah im looking into getting a used 50cc as well,
but just buying it and riding it not making one, just for riding around on and doing some jumps and **** around my house

but i dont know 175 might be a lil heavy for a 50cc im like 130
so i dont really know

oh, what do you mean make one?
bulid one from scratch?

the possibilities are endless with 50's... you can go as far as your bank account will let you. 170 is fine, ive seen bigger "kids" on 50's:). an excellent site is www.50ccracing.com, also www.planetminis.com is another really good site.
