WTB: Adult Trike

I'm looking to by an adult trike. I want to make it into a delivery rat rod type bike.

I have seen a couple on Craigslist in the last couple of months, I'd say keep looking. I'll let you know if I spot anything.

A friend of mine was looking for one last week. Said the CL postings go quick....

Thank you!!! I saw one on CL about a month ago but didn't pull the trigger on it.

Lou, just got an email back from them, it is sold. Oh well the search continues.

I can't believe that I'm actually saying this, but for once, Mall*Wart might be a good option... unless of course you can find a local bike ship that carries them, I know that Walmart does (if you order online). I imagine that most of the parts are upgradeable/interchangeable with higher end components.

@headloss....I looked at the "mart" trikes online lastnight. They don't look to bad, a little costly but I will keep them as an option if I don't find a used one.

Bicycle Joe, who hangs out at Kranicks, is making a trike for himself. He might be willing to make one for someone else. PM me for contact info.

Thanks for the liks Pierce, I emailed them both so we will see what happens.


@Mick I will have to check it out. I want to build my own but he may have some tips/tricks on a trike build.
