Found some old pictures on my GEO Bigfoot - GSR Conversion, I did it back in 2008! I can't believe it.

That's pretty much the lot, I do have a bigger front rota now and I used a custom made mount to stick it on the rims.

The two hardest things to overcome was the rear fender holder and the u-bolt set-up, I'm really happy with the steel and Allen bolts and actually think it works better than the original Go-Ped Design.

Anyway many you probably saw it at Cheddar but thought I'd post the historic pictures to show how it came about.

Lol ill attempt a wheelie on most air tyre peds, it's easy enough when you know where the consistent power is, just a bit of a surprise when you hit a powerband on one wheel lol.

You have any more plans for the ped mart?

I need to fix the Rear Tyre as that blew out in the last 15 mins at race night, apart from that there isn't anything I need to do.

I Love the thing.

When I was riding it, I thought it felt a bit spongey. Didnt know if it was from riding that sport most of the night and moving to air tyre ????

How bad was the blow out?

It is indeed a ported GP460. Really nice engine to be fair, easy to ride and plenty of power.
