Show your Puch Maxi aux. tank mods please....
Re: Show your Puch Maxi aux. tank mods please....
Eeeek! Not a good idea to ride it at all. Rusty tanks cause maxis to fold up like a taco. Structurally comprised. Or, live life on the edge and use one of those cheapo China bike motor tanks on the book rack.
But yeah I'd just change the frame out (edited)
Re: Show your Puch Maxi aux. tank mods please....
I agree with Aaron. You’d be surprised at the resilience of these tanks, I’d try cleaning it for a bit and see if some of the rust disappears, but I don’t know the whole story so a frame replacement, while tedious, probably wouldn’t be much more difficult or expensive than an external tank.

Grab a swinger/pinto/free-spirit/Murray frame and tank, then you can swap over all the parts.

Thinking of a frame brace w/ a China bike tank mounted on it. The moped is in great shape otherwise

I’ve heard of worse ideas, but still at that point you may as well just do a frame swap. It’s not fun but it’s worth it, if not for the stock style points then for safety.

MLM makes brackets to put a Tomos tank on a maxi.
