If you are one of the thousands of persons wishing to motorize your bicycle, but want the very best installation results, then this item could be your answer.
Pretty much all the 2 cycle engine kits available on the market come with an adapter which is used for bikes with larger lower frame. These bikes are typically the newer model Beach Cruisers and other bikes with larger diameter lower frames. The older engine kits included a thick piece of adapter metal with three holes and a long stud. The idea was to drill into the lower frame to fasten the front (lower) engine mount. A clamp is now commonly used (since we introduced this alternative method call the "Frame Saver"). You can still use our "STRONG & EASY BRACKET" (formerly called "Frame Saver") if you are looking for different results. Use your own rubber or inner tubes if you wish! FRAME SAVER also available WITH SPECIAL NITRILE RUBBER(check our stores).
note: Results might vary depending on bike type and skill of installer!

OLD NEWS
As you can see in this photo, the bracket and long bolt that comes with this engine is designed to go right through a hole, which you would drill into your bike's lower frame. Some other bikes, besides the Beach Cruisers also have a large rounded rectangular shape or very large oval size. NOTE: THE "Strong N Easy Bracket" (formerly Frame Saver Bracket) ADVERTISED IS NOT MEANT FOR THESE TYPE OF BIKES; however you are more than welcome to provide specs for a custom made Strong N Easy Bracket!
The "Strong N Easy Bracket" (formerly "FRAME SAVER") bracket can be used with most modern beach cruisers which have a lower frame that's larger than the seat tube. You can use it along with the adapter plate from your kit, or without.
This will typicall fit bikes with 1.5" diameter or less (with extra insulation).
Just use your own rubber insulation to wrap around your bike's lower frame, and then the "Strong N Easy Bracket" (formerly "frame saver") clamps securely around the rubber mount. You can use some adhesive like the one seen in the photo, or just wrap the tubing around the frame, and then hold in place with a piece of tape. Instructions are included. PLEASE NOTE: The adhesive and tape are NOT included. You can pay less and use your own rubber or inner tube with this frame saver. The inner tube is not likely to perform as well as our special Nitrile Rubber, however.
FITS ALL 2 cycle engines with front mount holes about 1 5/8" (42mm) apart.

As seen in this photo, your final results should look similar to this Schwinn bike. After mounting the "frame saver" on the engine, you would then attach the upper engine mount, and the lower mount would rest over the rubber insulation below. Tighten the upper mount a little first (a rubber insulation is NOT included with this Frame Saver), then use a plier or hammer to compress the lower bracket and install the through bolt.
After gradually tightening all the nuts and bolts, you should have a nice, neat and solid product,and what's more is that those insulation would help you achieve a smoother ride with less vibration! You can use a simple pair of spacers, such as the 2 nuts for bikes with taller frames.
So don't ruin your favorite bike by drilling holes if you don't want to! Go ahead and retain the value and integrety of your treasured cruiser by getting one of these jigs TODAY!
