ok, so yeah, I'm a little short....but those tires are 36" man!
Feels like you could plow right through a wall when you're riding this thing.

It's my buddy's bike. I always forget the make/model, so I'll get back with the info after Halloween
 
HA...Too Cool....I like it....The front chain ring looks tiny tho...

I'd like to see a 100T Chain ring up front and an appropriately large rear sprocket...Go BIG all the way around....Hmmmmmm ;-)

yep! The monster cruiser, that's it. Coker tires.

I was wondering about that front chain ring, too....it could be that it just looks small 'cause the rest of the bike is a freakin horse.

Of course I'm trying to talk him into motorizing it. The brakes would probably have to consist of calipers with a coaster on back and a bonus disc up front...this thing is heavy
 
The front chainring is smaller because the wheels are bigger. Ha, not just because how they look, but wheels that big need a smaller chainring!
 
i saw a Coker Monster Trike the other day. i think it's up on craigslist. it made the rider look like a little kid, and he was probably 6'.
 
Saw a couple of custom "yarders" at the NAHBS bike show last year.

Big $$$ but someone is always chasing the new next thing.
 
that custom 36 incher is pretty sweet. Just having 1 wheel that size opens up a lot of cool options for custom builds. I think a wheel/tire set costs nearly as much as a used Monster, though.

I don't think the owner is gonna put a motor on it. If I could come up with something removable, I might have a shot at convincing him. Maybe something friction-driven....?
