You need a pretty hefty (and therefore expensive) motor to last and do any good, plus batteries, plus a controller. It appears to be about a $300 project minimum. It is likely I can do gears with junk I've got lying around.Sevesteenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15439626386416115766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23800220.post-33875266005844273722008-08-12T12:44:00.000-04:002008-08-12T12:44:00.000-04:00Why not design a hybrid trike?

Sometimes she will wait to hear how big the splash is before she will go after it.<BR/><BR/>My wife wants a motor on her trike to deal with a couple of hills. I'm trying to talk her into gears instead. <BR/><BR/>Personally, I hate riding trikes--Steering isn't the same as a bike, and the rear brakes pull to one side. That caused a minor collision the first time I rode one, at work. Nothing injured but my dignity...Sevesteenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15439626386416115766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23800220.post-58289503374496998682008-08-11T20:36:00.000-04:002008-08-11T20:36:00.000-04:00I like your dog's choice in sticks.
