crossbreak said:The 200mm wide swing arm would need a lot of spacers.. which does'nt make it any stiffer. I'd prefer a more narrow swing arm.
Additionally, it is only 400mm long. So a 24" wheel will not fit I guess. Have a look at this one:

it's 450 mm long, has 295mmradial tyre clearance. It's made for 14"x3.0" moped tires just like the one you fount....It would still fit a 21" bycicle tire. A 24 x 2,35 (60-507) tire wouldn't..besides it would look funny since a 2.35" tire is quite narrow.
Which rear hub? 142x12mm shimano through axle hubs are not that expensive. They start at 40€.would need a custom swing arm.. maybe a Moped hub would be even cheaper, I guess they have 36 spockes as well.
ok.. why?This caused unmanagable chain growgth.
crossbreak said:ah ok got it. Something in between looks like most enduros. Same with mine, i'll try to keep it as is.. As soon as I got laced my wheel i'll post a pic.
Was hard to make your LMX pivot double shear on both sides i guess. A lot of work.. but worth it IMO... why didn't you mount your motor on that swing arm already.. would have been the same work.. or do I miss something here?
Maybe cut those ends from thick sheets by laser, then you'll have to do only little by yourself (dremel a bit and weld it up) would save you from that hard work you had last time
if the motor is close to the pivot, its influence is negligible. the wheelbase does not have to be longer either, thats just a design question.mounting a large motor on the swingarm will increase unsprung weight..
