RAT TRIKE UPDATE (long overdue)

viking · Sep 5, 2009

I first posted this project over a year and a half ago, but I put it aside for a while to start on a half dozen other projects, I' m sure I' m the only one that does this , right? Anyway this is an update. I'll be putting on the 15 x 10 Centerlines with maybe 235 50 15's (tire size). It will have one disc brake on the axle and maybe some gears to shift. This is going to be my tow rig for another custom bike I' m building (see recent post-preview update, remember this?). I'll also have to build a trailer to haul it on, I know another project but it keeps the creative bug alive. Anyway here's some more pics for now.

Update-I've got the hubs re drilled for the five lug Centerlines but still need some rubber. I've also got to put a sprocket and a disc brake rotor on the axle, find a different seat and maybe play around with some different handlebars, but it's almost ride able and I will post some more pics.
