Electric bike car show cruiser!

[Tripper]

My knees have been killing me so I decided to build an elec car show cruiser! It'll have a 16" rear tire! The front tire is a 12" gearless elec hub motor! Gonna chop & rake the front forks, shorten the height, get rid of the petals & maybe add body panels Mad Max style!

Wow! Major overhaul going on there.
I might copy you on this one.

Glad you got a thread going on this. I've been toying with some ideas using an electric hub too. Do you have any info on that hub you can share?

Now that I have my work for Mrs Tripper behind me, my focus has returned to my bike! Gastrick's son came to the Lonestar Round this year & we had a good time getting to know each other! When he saw I was building this bike he offered to give me this springer front end that was hanging on his dadd's shop wall. I ordered a 16" gearless hub for motivation, a battery pack & controller today & will be working on the frame until that stuff gets here!

It actually belonged to Bill's son but he never got around to using it so Bill hung it up in his shop! It's perfect for by bike! [cl

Got the forks welded on the frame & the integrated electric hub motor came in this week! More frame slicing & dicing & electronics & battery pack coming up shortly! Scouring the interwebs for a killer seat as we speak!
