G'day All!!! My names KiM i been building bicyles for the last 18 months or so and just happened across a link on Freakbike Nation to this site
so i thought i would check it out and ....! im glad i did some first class builds here and it seems like a very active forum.

OK..little about me...im a 40 year old disabled (paraplegic) gent from Perth Western Australia I'm into electric
asssisted bicyles (for obvious reasons) i also until my current planned build constructed trikes...my current ride-->

I have built 3 frames two trikes to completion. All my trikes are full custom made using ONLY bottom and head tubes from "donor bikes"
I have a fairly well equipped workshop mig welder tube bender all the power tools and hand tools etc
so i can tackle most projects head on with great success.

Im already involved in several online bicyle forums Endless Sphere Motorered Bikes V is for Voltage and Freak Bike Nations, i have full worklogs
on these sites already, i thought i would also become an active member here on Rat Rod bikes if there's enough interest in my builds.

I have upped a copy of my condensed worklog here on Rat rod bikes for members here to checkout.

Ciao for now fellas

Sweet trike. I want to build an electric bike. Welcome home.
 
Welcome. That's a great looking trike.

I was lucky enough to vist Fremantle and Perth when I was in the Navy. I bought a bright orange BSA folder from a bike shop in Perth and rode all over in my whites. My buddies laughed, but I had a blast.
