Uh... well...You have pics? Would help a lot..I have a mini bike wheel with a sprocket mounted to a flywheel and i need to reverse the flywheel so it will engage itself spinning the other way. Do i need a new flywheel or just need to flip it over, and if so...how?
I sense the minibike gods are smiling on humble self...I'll get some on by this time tomorrow.
It's a challenge but I've done it. If it was 4 cycle I wouldn't even attempt it but is also possible.make the engine spin backwards?
good luck doing that
Sorry, there's something I'm just not getting. What do you mean by flywheel? Flywheels are not associated with rear wheel at all.The flywheel on the wheel is rotating opposite of what i need it.
Mr. Kibble:Oh, I think you're trying to say that the motor is mounted in the opposite way it would be normally, thus spinning in the opposite direction?
The flywheel on the wheel is rotating opposite of what i need it. The flywheel disengages the sprocket when going backwards so not to fight the compression of the motor. I need it to do this instead of disengaging when going forwards. The wheel was meant for a motor with the toothed clutch on the other side. Maybe it's a little clearer now
Do you mean like a bicycle coaster brake?Wait wait wait! I think you mean that the "sprocket on the wheel" has a one was bearing or something similar that will not make the wheel turn if it's the position you currently have it! Is that right? Kind of like on a bike, when you pedal, you engage the sprocket and it rotates the wheel.
I believe they are called a "freewheel" maybe he meant that instead of flywheel.
