AlexM Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Can you supercharge it? What's the power to weight ratio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 They claim 30mph which should be scary on a bmx, the kit is designed for a mountain bike but i want it in a bmx, gonna be a tight fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Oh dear, how much?? May have to consider one for the my elder boy, he is showing an interest in bikes (much to my worry...), but can't really knock it giving the petrol-head mentality in our house.

GazB Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 That jet bike looks mental i think a crash helmet and some crash pads may be a good idea though :d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 HA ha. That is amazing. Is it a jet engine?? yeah, it looks a bit like one of those WREN model jet engines. Might be bigger than one of those though? You can make 'em from old turbos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Cool I remember reading about pulsejets now. I think they might be much cheaper to put together than turbine jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Cool I remember reading about pulsejets now. I think they might be much cheaper to put together than turbine jets. I've been banned from making a pulsejet...(that and a tesla coil) by the other half...Can't think why BUT she didn't say anything about BUYING one...

Pete Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I wonder what the law is on this? It's technically a motor bike now isn't it? Or is it? I can see the authorities not liking this one bit. I want one! It's be great for the place at Rhodes too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want one! It's be great for the place at Rhodes too. Yea cant see they will like it much, i dont care though and if i see a copper i will just hit the kill switch and peddle like hell:D I mainly want it for messing about on the footpaths/tracks down by the river, they go for miles, ive took my dirt bike down there a few times but thats taking the piss a bit:D Ive got another more powerfull engine on its way aswell, hope to have it up and running by next weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure actually myself...mind you I'm sure we will find out soon when Jamie gets tugged for doing 85mph on a gassed BMX going past a copper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
