Hi Folks
after a lot of rain and cold damp weather I have actually finish painting the trike

Final specification includes -
20" x 1.75 tyred alloy rimmed wheels all round with Under Seat Steering and centre point geometry .
21 speed index gears from 17" to 90" , and disc brakes all round - 160mm front and 140mm rear
a respectable specification for a home built prototype. weight is about 42lbs ( from memory )

I have sorted most of the little niggles that occur in the rebuilding process and it just needs a few more miles to sort itself out .

I have done a few miles on it and it rides well and looks nice .

regards emma
