there is nothing, its just solid rod bent and run through the tabs that are there. I can get you some measurements, but it wont be for a week or so. My bikes are inaccessible right now in the garage......its chocked full of trailer loads of stuff from my moms house as we are moving her down here to a new house.
Mini Bike Frame ID?

BMI karts has some NOS wheel halves too, I think they are all with the mount lugs for the sprocket though so you would have to machine off the bosses on one side....unless you used them for maybe a disc brake rotor or something like that.

The yellow one is a Bombardier/Garelli but it doesn't have a motor or wheels, probably around 1971. The first one is the one I'm trying to figure out. I have a ton of 69-74 Honda Z50 stuff and I have seen it confused as such before but I can't remember what the heck it is. It's not a Rockford Chibi, Gemini SST or a Minico but it is from around 71-73. Many will say that Honda had that frame style first in 1972 but the 1971 Rockford Chibi had it first in the United States anyhow. In the late 60's early 70's Honda was selling their bikes at or below cost to eliminate the competition and everyone was trying to emulate them to stay in business.

I have a measurement of 6 3/4" from outside the tubes up on the top of the frame. the brackets look to be about 5 3/4" long welded to the top tubes (not taking my seat off) The seat they used was what some of the Taco bikes also used, although the Aggie version bike usually had some glitter style material.
On the foot pedal/scrub brake here are some measurements. Note: I measured outside dimensions
5/8" solid rod/tubing.
9.5" across the from left to right/across the framerail (outside of rod on left to flat end on right.
9" long from foot pedal to back of bend
3.75" foot pedal length
The scrub pad is a 3.5"x3.5" square, welded fairly flush with the rod
Thos bikes used a 4.10x 3.50 -6 " tire (12.5" od) factory so if you play with different tire sizes you may want to set the scrub brake up with tires on and installed to set the angles and spacing where you like it.
That long pice of strap that stick off the right "hinge" stop the pad/rod from rotating too far up.
the rod is retained by some cotter or pins (whatever you like) on either side of the right hinge. ( I think it was pins originally)
Hope that makes sense and will give you some help with it.
