  • This years Bike Shed Show exhibited the first shed built trike, a creation which spanned 7 years by model maker Tim.
    Begun after seeing the Morgan three wheeler and inspired by pre-war race cars, Tim wanted a bigger scale project and to try his hand at aluminium bodywork.
    Based on a BMW R100, this is definitely one of the more unique airhead custom jobs we've seen in a while!

    Being a blacksmith and machinist myself, I know how many, many hours of work that probably went into this piece of art.
    It truly deserves to be called a piece of art cause that is exactly what you've made there. :)

    Authentically retro but somehow has a Star Wars pod racer feel, can't stop gorping, amazing work mate!

      Gavin Zissou The main bad guy in the Star Wars pod race had a big pod and he had a similar grill so that’s what is coming up in your mind

      Looks like there is room to drop the seat and have your torso lay across the body work for what might be a nice riding position ? Or at least better than that !

      @@stevencochran4284 I would do that too, make it more aerodynamic and put a windscreen at the right angle, in a way it looks like the Sabre jet from the old days. I think he wanted the seating position to be just like a quads. Still, his metal craftmanship is great.

      Right, I thought so, too. The pegs could go lower since the bike doesn't lean, then the knees wouldn't be bent that much.

    Anybody that spends this amount of time hand forming his dream gets my thumbs up. Nice to see folk getting away from two wheels in the back, as its so unstable in turns vs two wheels up front. I have a hand cycle that has the front drive wheel configuration and have rolled it a few times, while in turns at speed. Not that the single rear drive can't be rolled, as well, it is just far more stable under most conditions. I've got an electric assist version of the single rear drive trike I'm working on. Keep em' spinning.

    @black_jackledemon6298 4 года назад

    Nice work. Aluminum is a unique metal to work with.
    By that I mean it has a learning curve that is an absolutely flustrating pain in the arse.
    I had to learn to love it. Currently the only machine and welding shop in the area that can turn out proper quality aluminium repairs and custom fabrications.
    Steel and even to some extent Stainless Steel there's a bit more competition. But branching out into less common alloys has been intresting and "paid the bills"
    Brilliantly done I'd say ....and all the more impressive from the limitations of a home shop no less !
