Including getting towed up hill, riding at night in traffic with no lights, etc.

Not the worst of it, but what puzzles me is the barefoot riding @0:30



Apparently, you are never too young to drift your trike....

There are plenty of trikes for adults, sadly most are not low slung enough.

But surely, where there's a will..... ;)


You knew I was going to find something.... didn't you? :puzzled: :lol:

I bring you the High Roller Adult Trike (Fair warning.... nostalgia costs.... to the tune of $650). However, they have recently successfully completed their funding request cycle on Kickstarter.

Front wheel is pneumatic. Rear wheels are hard plastic for sliding/drifting.



It would be interesting to swap out the back wheels with free spinning or hard mounted GI Bazukas.

Rear View


Cantilever Front Brakes


Adjustable Seat For Short or Long Legs

You should make your own, that's what most of the kids do!
Saw a kid make one in about half an hour!
All you need is a bmx, a Plastic chair, some atb wheels, PVC pipe, some basic construction skills!
