Brig Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Wahoo! Just saw this posting. Now that looks like a Ton O' Fun! If you are looking for some Black PVC material Brig....let me know. I have about 6 to 8 yards (60") of it just sitting around the back of my reenactment closet. Besides...my days of wearing Black PVC are over. Might was well put it to some good use. Woo, thanks Cheeky! I'll let you know once I'm a little further into the design mechanics.

MorganTyre Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I've got no pictures of myself in steam gear but I did just come across a pic of the penny-fake-thing I built a couple of years ago. I think it qualifies for the genre. It's a joy to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you do fall (and you will) you're thrown forward off of the bike and land right on your feet. That's the reason the handlebars are mounted where they are. There's nothing to hang you up on your way down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I have to get back to working on my trike.... I started it last year for Burning Man, but had some slight problems that I will fix this year .... well that, and I want to add a small motor to it.... This is a picture of it before I added a seat and painted it Hunter Green. The peddling is weird, and that is also part of the problem, The peddles tend to come undone (Bicycles tighten when you peddle them, with everything flipped backwards, it tends to loosen....) I could fix that... or I'm just going to add some more sprockets and lots of bicycle chains, (and a lawn mower engine) and make it rear-wheel driven. fix the seat, and maybe add brakes.....

Guest Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Well..... the original idea was that a trike is more stable than a bicycle....specially if ye've been drinkin' ... Hey...IT IS for Burning Man.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
