Looks a bit familiar - here's mine.

Is it a standard bike front end apart from the leading links?  They look fine on there, were they expensive?

They were too expensive really, cost me over a grand , but with my disabillity i needed something to make the steering as light as poss , i was lucky i had the money sitting there , Think i could have had em made up , learned a lot since then  Cool

I love my Gertie, she was my bike that I had converted.  But realistically I need to look for a new trike when I can afford it.  I need an automatic with reverse gear and easier steering, which really means a car engined trike, but I have to convince myself I could ove a trike with a car engine.  Though I do like manky Monkey's Reliant trikes - something like that with an auto box and rear suspension would be great!

Rob, have a look at the Motors, 3 wheels section. Can you send us in a few piccies, (the ones you've posted here plus some close ups of any interesting details, plus one of you with the trike. If you can add a few words -or a lot of words if you prefer, we can post it in the Motors bit for posterity!
