Simpson Sears Fleetwing main frame, CCM rear end and crankset.

That's awesome! Is the extension simply added on to the bolt that holds the Fleetwing's stay? Brilliant idea!

Thanks, yea. Basically. Drilled holes in the chainstays of the add-on bit, then just bolt into the dropouts of the main frame. Kinda ghetto/oldschool but people seem to like it. Plus it was an excuse to use up parts I just had laying around.

Techniques definitely fits the style of build. Ghetto School is the new cool.

Thanks guys, i did a little more to it yesterday. I got these rear steps for a Schwinn roadster tricycle and i boxed in the rear end. I also moved the seat back some by putting another seat post on the front of the seat pan. Gives me a little more room to ride. Sulley

Can you maybe show some more pictures about how you made it a trike? i want to make an electric trike but cant find much info on how other people make their OCCs trikes

Could you maybe show how you made the rear. Im trying to make one of my own but all the kits i see dont have a wide enough stance that im looking for and yours look perfect. Any tips? I dont own a welder or know anyone who could weld one up for me.

I hope nobody minds me reviving this thread, as I feel like my Nirve Cannibal will fit nicely in here.
If people are interested, I'll post a thread with more photos and details of what I've done to get it looking how it is now.
