Warrior tadpole trike
"Hi Brad and Kat. Here are pics of
my new Blue Bullet Warrior.
Thanks again for the great plans.
This bike rides just as good as a store
brand, actually better because I
know who made it.
AZTV
Keep up the great job you two do.
I think someone in the Warrior
forum was asking for ideas on where
to mount a speedo. It works well,
easy to see and not in the way.
Florida
I've got about 45 hours of labor $375 to $400 dollars invested. The biggest expense was the
wheels, tires, and disc brakes ($220 without shipping) and three free old donor bikes two of
which I was able to ride.
It's unreal what people throw out. It was 28F this morning so I thought my shake down run
wasn't going to happen, but in Florida if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes.
Anyway, it warmed up to 70F by lunch so I
took it to the local bike trail and put 20 miles
on it.
WOW! Kool ride. Just a few little
adjustments, and I'll take another ride
Monday. Happy peddling."

"Hi Brad and Kat.
UK
Finished and now riding my latest
chopper. The bike parts were in the main
free. Paid for a Brooks saddle and
mudguards and crank, then new cables
but even so the final spend is probably still
than £120 which will just buy you an entry
level mountain bike (without the really
comfortable seat).
Whilst out with two friends on their
mountain bikes today, they both had a go
and loved the more upright riding
position. I had a bit of trouble getting it
back! New Years resolution is to finish the quad (two wheel ratchet drive and good ground clearance for
the derailleur) picture also attached. It is close, but I'm not happy with the handle bar positions, and a bit
limited in options given the narrow track, but it will be finished for sure.
As always finding the website a real inspiration. Regards, Tim Fox aka go1000go based in the UK."

#2 chopper build (OverKill)
DeltaWolf with suspension
AZTV
Well, Wolf pack, what would you say to having
independent suspension on the two rear
wheels? And what if those two wheels were
made up of 9" automotive wheel blanks with
26" low profile BF Goodrich tires.
And what if the axles were 3/4" rather than
5/8". And what if it had 2 rear disk breaks.
And what if the lower A frame arms were
made out of light weight conduit with 6" MB
shocks attached. And what if the rear frame
came straight back rather than slant down
with better eye appeal. The front suspension
would be a springer on the front forks patterned after the Gladiator with out all that
slant. Would we dare call it a beta “DW
Springer”?
Fitted the spokes to the rim, then put the
rim on the frame, took a heap of measurement and there will be no problems with
clearance.
The tire is getting fitted tomorrow night.
So, this weekend, the plan is to get the handle bars made and fitted and try to get the
transmission made and fitted up (if all goes
well).

Warrior based Velomobile
First Build
I finished up the headrest and I made a
windshield also. I was feeling a lot of wind
around my head. I gave it a test ride today
and the windshield worked perfect. I am not
feeling any wind on my head now. I got a lot
of people staring and one woman followed
me and asked if she could take a picture.
I am.

I have finished the rear wheel, a 15 x 7.5 steel
wheel, 56 spokes and stretched coaster brake
hub (I haven't mounted the tire obviously).
After seeing a picture
of OverKill, I just had
to build it. I purchased

I currently teach Computer Applications (mainly Web 2.0) and how to create a Business Plan.
On this particular project, I salvaged the parts and built the jigs, the students fabricated the trike.
Special thanks to
