Hi Everybody
I have joined the forum because I need help.We are an elderly couple living in France and we have bought a Worksman side by side tricycle which we find a bit heavy as we live in fairly hilly country. So we have decided to motorise if possible. I have been looking on the internet but the only likely looking company "Cyclehappy" seems to be closed. Can anyone help with ideas or the location of kits, they need to be front mounted as the rear axle is split.
Please help.

hi dodo; i have had success mounting a golden engle bike engine kit on the front wheel of a trike. you can use a less expensive engine than theirs. however i recommend the subaru 35cc. i hope that helps.
