Hauling Hog (I hope)

[Pushie Pirate]

I'm in, bit on work-wise but what the! Always liked bikes that have a bit of
purpose and hate waste so will be building a trike with a tray using the
front half of the rear half I used on Humulis Hog. Like the hog and most
of my builds plan to be low, looking up at other cyclists, this one will be
long and low!

My issue is probably no new pic's for a bit, big time issues with internet
speed in my little isolated corner of the planet sadly. Meant to be getting a
national (Australia wide) broadband roll out soon but soon may be not so
soon.

Pic's coming I hope, here's a couple of pic's the old bike, using from around
the front of the seat forward.

Here's what I did with the rear half, Humulis Hog.

It's always good to see you join in the fun.
Good luck with the interwebs and your build!

Always love a PP build!

A little friendly advice, if you can get away with not going to the new broadband network until they get the bugs out you will be happier, we have been having huge issues for the last six months with slow speeds and constant dropouts. Here is a current speed test I did for example:

We are meant to be getting 25mbps down and 5 mbps up...

Guys, I don't intend to hijack this thread, but talk of "improved" net speed inspires me to start new thread on that subject...

Will be interesting to see what is planned for the front half!

Okay having some major internet speed issues in my little bit of paradise,
got this beast welded up a while ago here she is in mock up. Going for
hotrod truck and of course low, will have a fair size tray on her for carting
stuff for some of my other hobbies. Scored a hydraulic disk break set up
to help slow up the mass!

Had to mode the fender a bit due to damage, will also lower it onto the
tyre a bit.

Got a couple of style correct lights for her also a chrome t-bar shifter.

[LukeTheJoker]

[Pushie Pirate]

I'm out folks, too much other stuff on, bummer but will get
her done when I get a few things done around the home!

Good luck, was hoping to see it finish.
