This is how it's joined, obviously I have not tightened anything in this picture. Thinking I can use a longer bar to stretch the bike out to make more room in trike part.

Just put this together. Still needs some tweaking but she rides nice. Looking into a way to stretch the space between the trike and the bike for a longer bike.

Stretched it out about a foot longer. Has a little wiggle to it that I think will require some bracing or angle instead of flat bar to fix. work in progress, but she made it to the beach and the bar. So she works for now, lol

So evidently I am too heavy for 1/4 x 1 inch steel bar... on to 2" angle iron. Any other ideas as to what I could do to alleviate this issue? I really like my stretch trike...

Plus I am getting some side to side wobble on the bike. any ideas/experience on that one?
