    Anyone ever tried this?

    http://www.atomiczombie.com/Tutorial%20-%20HammerHead%20Trike%20-%20Page%201.aspx The Forums seem to have a decent number of Hammerhead builders, seems like a perfect resource for a project like this! The stated purpose of the original designer was for ice and snow, might work for sand...

    The Hepkat * I'm back!!

    OR, you can give it a good coat of wax and keep riding-looks great as is! You can always repaint it later, right? :D

    Ziggy Stardust Rest in Peace! Good bye, David Bowie!

    What amazes me most about David Bowie: 1) Finds out he has Cancer, 2) Decides he has time to go out swinging and spends his final months making his last album. Angels sing thee to thy rest Mr. Bowie, Lord only knows you've treated them often enough...

    The Goon

    I am...overwhelmed by this build. That is the most astonishing workable geometry I have ever seen, I can't believe you've had such relatively minor trouble with the chainlines! It is obvious that I am watching a mad genius at work here, so i'm grabbing my tub of popcorn and watching quietly...

    Check out this fold up.

    No offence meant-it is indeed a very out-of-the box design, and I do like out-the-box thinking. It's just that I have this picture of me on this bike, spinning about 80 RPM as my face begins to turn bright red, sweat cascading down my spine as I sloooowly begin to overtake that old man in a...

    THE COMFORT KLUNKER

    I'm not a huge fan of the plastic pan, but the springs alone are worth the price of that saddle. With the way they've mounted those springs I could almost see someone buying that seat,re-mounting those springs on an Ichi banana seat that pivots gently on the sissy bar... (checks wallet...

    Sooooo....a fold-out pedal bike with itty-bitty scooter wheels, hm? Unless that critter has some serious gears I could outwalk it, and it would faceplant the rider at the first sign of, I dunno, gravel? Rain? A tiny twig in the road? Pass. :rofl:

    Victory bicycle

    They opened fine for me-maybe a recent fix? At any rate, awesome bike! How are those Mag wheels holding up?

    Mother of God, how fast does that thing go? And how many batteries, controllers and motors does it burn through in the process? :eek:

    Whats with mens bikes?

    Well, most of the frames i've been playing with (less so now that winter is on the way and my bronze won't flow well :cry: ) are either kid's frames or BMX knockoffs-lots of cheap steel fittings, 20" rims and such to play with. Once I knocked together my White Rabbit compact bike I gave my 1965...

    pedal cars!!!!

    Oh, and before I forget, we have RRB's own Plycar working on a nice Pedal car as well: http://ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/phantom-retroadster-mk-2.92285/ Still can't wait to see the Mk II in action, and the MK I is awesome in it's own right. :41::41::41:

    pedal cars!!!!

    Alas, no- most 'Adult' Pedal Cars are nearly $2000-$3000 range...:20: One possible exception might be this site: http://americanspeedster.com/ Costs range from a Parts Kit at under $450 (plus buying PVC and investing sweat) to under $20 for the plans alone and trusting yourself to...

    "building" a loser

    I think cheap Chinese frames are just dandy-check your welds and build! I think that cheap Chinese components are dandy for prototyping a new design-especially if they are free on a cheap or free frame! You can always build now, dial in your settings, ride your build awhile and upgrade as they...
