My Trike

[ROADMONARCH]

Well I completed my Project thank you to iRideCutoms for initially showing me it could be done and to Big Al (burque kid)in New Mex, the '48 dually (at ratrodbikes & chapaderos) and to OHCHUSAN from Singapore via ratrodbikes all your help and vision, also to all the other trikes that are out there.

Now I have to get my wife's Special Trike built, Got a guy in Hemet, CA by the name of Ken @ Effort Cycles.

He will build it with a shorter crank on one side due to her not being able to have the power to get a full rotation.

and to you guys here at the Chopaderos for all your inspiration






Effort Cycles Trike

it looks really nice...the rack with the saddle bags looks super cool, give's it some curb speed.

[Fonda]

maybe replace the bags with two of Sam's rockets!

Nice Trike, I like the wide rim, is the a shifter on the bar? can you send a close up photo?

So I'm guessing you like your Chevys. I see a little Dale Sr influence in that babe I'm coming out to cal. for the ride at the end of May maybe you can be there too? Enjoy your new ride and after your wife gets hers.

Maaaan, your trike is awesome. AWESOME. I love the double lights you put and the chevrolet logo on the frame. Just hope I'll have the pleasure to see Papa Joe's Trike goin down the street one day!

Cuevo Maldito;

I have been taking my wife to Legg Lake (or as they call it Whittier Narrows), the issue we had to stop was that her handcycle is so low that if she hits any concrete bumps on the trail she bottoms out & the last time she almost went down sideways and the hand pedals gave her a nasty bruise in her ribs.

That is why Ken @ Effort Cycles has been working on a special crank for her.

Hey OC ROADRUNNER;

Yea, those rims & tires are sweet.

I sent the rims and fenders to a Local powder coater and got them done for $120.00 US.

I will stay with the black because it easier to touch up.
