Well you didn't say what kind of bike you are getting

If it is a knockoff fiddy the bmx pegs might work but you will have to do something with the adjusters . And make the hole big enough in the pegs for the axle bolt to go thru them .

About that Giovanni mini , i don't think that thing will be very powerful at all .

It looks like it is a centrifical clutch (auto one speed) so you are gonna lose alot of low end power for sure .

Pulling those up into wheelie is pretty hard cause of your body position and the front clip-ons . With no power or Manual clutch , it will be almost impossible .

But if you put rear pegs on that thing and throw your weight and gas it , it will probably come up .

The site you posted for that Giovanni is pretty shady to me . They all say that "They have the best mini" . But really they are all the same .

I find it funny that they will throw in free parts . To me that means they are only covering their ass when the bike starts to fall apart .

And they also say that thing retails for $1,499 U.S. . But you can buy it for $204 . That absolutely makes no sense at all .

Imagine going and looking for a brand new for $50,000 retail . But a dealership would sell it to you for only $7,000 . You never see that do you .

A 49cc two stroke pocketbike is a pretty small engine nowadays .

Larger 4 strokes with Manual clutches are the way to go in my opinion .

Like a X-18 :YEAH

This is an old thread that talks about the X-18
