    Great buy! It looks like one sweet ride. I'd be interested to hear how it handles with one back break.

    post trike pictures

    Yes and I must say the leaf spring suspension is brilliant. Even with a Mac tool box on the front loaded with tools it keeps things from getting tossed when you hit a bump. This bike is well made. If I had the time I would load it with camping gear and ride it to palm desert.

    This is my Worksman model-u front load trike. It was purchased new by bell media and used to move tools for some time. After that it spent 25 years underground at a psychiatric hospital in st. Tomas Ontario. I have owned it for 10 years. weight capacity is over 500 pounds.

    wheels Q?

    Hey. I saw your post thought I could certainly offer to help. I have a large sand blasting cabinet in my shop. I am in east Calgary. Generally I charge a dollar per min for blasting. But if its just a bike wheel sounds like $25 a set to me. That is for a complete 26" wheel set front and back.

    40cc 4stroke Weed Wacker Bike

    I have built two motorized bicycles now.Both of them have 49cc 2 stroke engines made in china. I decided i want a 4 stroke. I asked the man at Toys4Boys Motor-sports about his 4 stroke bicycle kit. He said "don't do it. It is gutless and a pain to install. Not recommended." This left me with...
