3 Unless you have fabricating and welding experience, this is not a good idea.
Some people like to fabricate their own or fabricate one from a bicycle frame. The frame will be the nucleus of your mini bike everything in one way or another will be attached to this. These tools are so common that if you don’t have them, I’m pretty sure one of your neighbors will, and if not, your neighborhood hardware store will. You’ll need wrenches, sockets and ratchets with extensions, at least a flathead and Phillips screwdriver, mallet hammer, and a can of WD-40 (spray grease). If you have a basic set of garage-kept tools to do regular maintenance around the house or on your vehicle, you should be fine. You don’t have to be a master mechanic or even have a master mechanic’s toolbox. The best advice for novice mini-bike builders is to keep it simple. 1 Building one is not as hard or as expensive as you may think, so it’s a great DIY project if you’re looking for something constructive to do in your spare time or simply want to try your hand at building a fully functional mini bike. If you’re ready to move on to something more challenging than a bicycle for yourself or your son or daughter, then a mini bike could be a perfect upgrade.
