Custom Murray Trike

[eltamt]

This was a Murray 2 wheel bike and I built it into a man's style 3 wheeler. Has a Del Sol rear axle with 24" x 1.75 tires. I took it completely apart and replaced any bad parts, repacked bearings, etc. Sanded old paint, primed and repainted with orange GM enamel, black base coat and cleared. Has high rise handle bars, working front Zoom suspension for smooth cruising, wide seat and new style front brake, cable type. Detailed chain guard with Murray decal. The rear rims are chrome which I cleaned with polish. Try to polish all chrome to look real nice if possible, instead of painting. Front rim is Alesa Alloy 26" x 1.75. Possibly a Schwinn wheel. Cruises real nice. One thing I have to remember is to lift a leg up and over! :mrgreen:

Nice Trike! Well done. I read a lot that trikers prefer a step-through frame vs. the up-and-over thing! But, I love the look of the men's frame triked out.
