Gotta do a tribute build for my Dad first though.🤓

Very nice. Always looking forward to seeing a great tribute
 
thinking out side the box. a friend built this on another bike site. would something like this go in. muscle bike class or BMX/ off road class??

Excuse me... I believe those bars are a direct descendant of the ape and it looks like a well proportioned tire stagger of big n' little. Other than the fact that it's already built, I think a bike that matched it's components and was documented in the build threads could absolutely be in the muscle bike class. It's WAY MORE MUSCLE than those 26" cruiser builds! (even if it is a bmx frame)
 
now that my other 2 builds are almost done. I kinda want to try to build one of these. :p
Adult Mountain Bike Tricycle 7 Speed disc brake. would be cool for over night camping off road. put slepping bag and tents in basket head off the beaten path.

Inspiration detail that I'm thinking could be replicated for not too much. I'll bet a guy could drill out the middle of an existing set of shifter handles, then Dremel and file and sand the centers out. It's a cool detail I probably wouldn't have thought of but I've got filed away til I find the right set of shifters.

Are the numbers on the tube the gear inches for each speed? That's obsession :inlove:
 
I know we have several builders that are either in the process of or still considering changing classes. If you need your build moved and also subsequently your thread cleaned up because of the move feel free to reach out to one of the mods and we can get you taken care of. Make sure you're building in the appropriate category to clear up any confusion later on

what class would something cool like this fit?

Looking at the tires, only place would be off road. Good thing that "pedal powered" isn't a requirement for this one. Here's the one Lil Thundrrr used to race at the BMX track in the strider class
