Hey guys,
Does anyone know how the drive train works on those 3 wheeled bicycles that you see alot of elderly people driving around? I've never seen one up close, and don't know where they sell them around here to get a good look at them. My daughter will be 2 in March, and I would like to build her a low rider chopper looking pedal power tricycle driven by the rear wheels. You know, raked front end, all pimped out. She's too little for a motor, but if the old man has a motoized barstool, she can't be ridin' around on some average trike from the toy store. She gots to be COOL, man.
I figured it would be a good winter project, and the wife would really think I went off the deep end (bonus).
Thanks,
Wayfat
