I have seen clamp mounts in the past and all I can say about those is I don't see why they wouldn't work but you better make sure your hardware is up to snuff. I have a jammer narrow springer on the cb550 and it has a threaded bung on the inside leg. This machine was able to do burn outs on ice and wheelies with ease.Depends on whose springer it is, but generally there are no conversion kits. 24 inch by 2.5 Kenda Nevegal tire for the front for dragster-like steeze. Dual Kenda Blue Groove 26 inch by 2.7 inch tires for the rear. We built up 26 inch Sun MTX33 Disc rims to those custom disc hubs.
That’s right, individual lever action controlling each rear wheel independently (for pulling mad G’s in the corners). We chose Avid DB1 Hydaulic Disc brakes for the rear wheels. I wish I had a picture of the completed trike. The 6 bolts went through the back of the 6 arm spider perfectly. Remember that cassette freewheel sprockets usually have 6 arm spiders, which is why I chose the 6 bolt configuration. 18 is divisible by 6 which means 6 bolts can fit perfectly between the teeth and attach to the other side, which contains the cassette freewheel. It becomes clear why I close an 18 tooth freewheel for the left side ratchet. Here you can see the 2WD mechanism bolted together. The thing that kept the bolts together was a custom sleeve that you can see above with 6 holes in it. The right freewheel will ratchet and allow the right wheel to spin faster. This way when the trike takes a turn to the left, the right wheel is going to want to spin faster because of being on the larger arc path. I had to cut the axle in half and insert each half into a keyway that threads in and secures into each individual freewheel. They both have ratchets, thus being able to freewheel individually. You see a cassette freewheel as well as a single speed freewheel. I wanted to use what we had in the shop so I made a ‘double freewheel’ system that bolted together with 6 bolts as you see in the picture above.
So how did I give this guy the two wheel drive capabilities that he wanted? Anytime a vehicle has two driving wheels, it needs some form of differential. And I had my best Russian weld up some disc tabs to the frame.
#Dual disc girder front end driver
The axle was keyed into the disc driver and disc driver was bolted to the 6 bolt pattern of the hub. It was the interface between the axle and the hub. This was the reason for the 6 bolt disc driver. That means that each wheel needed to be directly attached to the axle so that it could be driven. Don’t forget that our boy wanted 2WD in the back. What you’ll also see is a custom 6 bolt disc driver with a keyway machined into it. I avoided the new 15mm hubs and ended up going with 20mm disc hubs for cost reasons and because I needed to make new end caps anyway. The rear axle happens to be 15mm but I needed to make custom super short profile end caps for the hubs because of extremely limited axle length available on this trike. We needed some basic mountain bike disc hubs. Others have become professionals at using the words NO, impossible, not worth it, it can’t be done. You must understand that any shop I can think of (and I know a lot of shops) would laugh at this guy and his whimsies but my shop is a place where dreams come true. He wanted dual hydraulic disc brakes, one for each rear wheel AND a two wheel drive system for the rear. Keep in mind that stock, these trikes are driven only by one of the rear wheels (the other wheel just spins freely) and are stopped by a stupid band brake that ONLY works on the driven wheel. He owned the most basic adult tricycle you could possibly get.
