To the Cris dude asking about them wheels, the rims are off Schwinn OOC choppers proberly, first one looks it anyway, apparently some motorcycle tires also fit those rims.
Heres a trike I whipped up quickly for a parade, it was a nice trike when I got it but now it's much nicer. it's gonna get a firestone supercruiser as a front end though.

Here is my trike "The Transformer", you will see why, that I built from scratch. It also has a 5.5HP Honda gas engine and dual matched Electric motors, not shown, along with many accessories. I will post the fabrication photos at a later date.
thats mine 
Nice trikes!
Here is one that I built. Running a pair of Cooper 31x9 1/2 All Terrain tires out back and the seat was stolen from my Geo Metro after I blew the motor up.
This took up WAY too much real estate in the garage so I traded it for this '80 Schwinn Town & Country trike with a 600w hub motor and two sets of batteries.

Ok i have a trike in progress, presently frame and tripple tress are getting powder coated. I am using the Choppers U.S. super fat frame with the heavy duty rear. I had the bottom bracket machined narrower to accept a nice sealed bottom bracket as well as cut the tabs off the trike rear and rewelded then on at a wider point to meet the rear dropouts of the frame for a much more stable secure joining instead of the cheesy way choppers us has you use spacers. I am using 24 x 4 rear tires on 100mm rims and a 24 x 3 tire on a 80mm rim up front. Using a brooks b-135 saddle, custom machuined grips, valve caps. it is really sweet so i will post picts as soon as i get it built. i will try to post the pre mock ups picts i took a month ago. <a href="http://s967.photobucket.com/albums/ae159/veloglider/?action=view&current=updatetoVenganzaBastardoGrasa001.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i967.photobucket.com/albums/ae159/veloglider/updatetoVenganzaBastardoGrasa001.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><a href="http://s967.photobucket.com/albums/ae159/veloglider/?action=view&current=updatetoVenganzaBastardoGrasa003.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i967.photobucket.com/albums/ae159/veloglider/updatetoVenganzaBastardoGrasa003.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
ok the picts worked this time. anyhow the frame will be satin white as will the fork legs, rims and pedlas, handlebars as well as custom made wood box for the rear. The tripple tree braces will be satin black as will the spokes and nipples as well with the bmx cranks, seatpost, custom grips and valve caps and custom hardware for the box. Using the avid BB7 200mm disk brake up front. so many more details and custom parts as well will be in the final picts in about 4 weeks. Oh the rear wooden box is like an old school flat bed with rails and also has a small built in box with hinges to open and inside the box will be the 135 db airhorn to blow people away. the name of the trike will be Vengaza Bastardo Grassa or Fat ........ revenge after my Fat ....... build. http://i967.photobucket.com/albums/ae15 ... asa001.jpg

Got this off an Industrial Electrician that worked in a Ford Transmission factory. Has a real US Army box on the back plus little extras like the coil spring cup holder, additional caliper brake on one rear wheel and magnets mounted above each wheel to pick up metal shavings. Unique.
