That's a ZX50 front end, but not the one I'm using . Almost finished with it. Still have to Fab Elite wheel to run Disc Brakes... The Front end I'm installing is off a TaoTao ATM 50...pics soon..

The express is the lightest of the group. It looks like it'll have a pretty good center of gravity also.

Hi HP. That's very cool how you installed the Metro wheel with the disc brakes. :thumbwink:
Can we get a better look on how you welded that together? Thanks.

The Zuma motors are one of the fastest motors out there. That's true.
I know I had one.

I will post some pics..basically I cut the Drum brake part out of the Elite wheel. Cut the center out of TaoTao Steel 10" Disc brake wheel. Cut it down to the Length & just Fit inside the Elite wheel . Lots of cutting & fitting to get it Right..
Assembled wheel & put on a Cheap Motorcycle wheel balancer to Tru it up then Tac welded it together.
Test fit it on the Scoot to make Sure it was centered in forks & check For Correct spacing on Disc Brake Rotor and Caliper..
Took me about 4.5 hours Start to finish .... I know the Welds won't win any Beauty contests but after I blast & coat the wheel it will look Great...
