Re: Two seater trike
Thank You Bob. My friend wanted this trike slammed with a drop seat. His butt will be around 3" above the chain and around 18-19" off the pavement. We both agreed that there would need to be two chain tensioners, top and bottom. This axle is approximately 16" back from the stock locat...

Re: Two seater trike
A little more done. Rear end is all welded up. I put a spare girder on it without cups or bearings for a fun mock up. http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p189/spennebake/2013-02-12_16-32-53_12_zps4df1390c.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p189/spennebake/2013-02-12_16-33-25_456_zps38c8e16f.jpg h...

Re: HAPPY THANKSGIVING
Yes, We had a great turkey day. We did the travel thing and left early in the morning and got home late. Hope yours was a happy one and you and your family had a great day. Are you moving to a new town or just a new crib?

Re: Two seater trike
Thanks for the kind words Dan. It's been a long journey so far. Building a trike is quite a different animal compared to a bike. A lot of new things to think about. I will do anything I can to try and help you with your wheels Dan. It will be hard to check anything without tearing the assembly all a...

Re: Front axle material
1045, 1050 is plenty good enough. That's what most car axles are made of.

Re: Two seater trike
Thanks Dan. I sure wish we would have talked also about balancing your wheels. It really a pretty easy job to do. Just like anything else we do it seems intimidating at first but once you get rolling it goes pretty quick. I guess I would have a hard time accepting 9 months even if the guy was doing ...

Re: Two seater trike
I couldn't stand the way the wishbones looked so I changed them up. I am a lot happier with the looks of these. http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p189/spennebake/2012-10-01_12-12-58_323.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p189/spennebake/2012-10-01_12-14-31_997.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/al...
