Motorizing a handcycle?

[hoosierrider]

Greetings,
I ride a Top End handcyle with 24" wheels and 7 speed front wheel drive. I'm interested in adding a motor to this trike. In perusing web sites, I see that some companies have front wheel drive friction drive motors for pedal drive trikes, but I don't find any handcycles. (Maybe there's no difference in motor options...?)
Can anyone point me to some options to rig my handcycle?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't know enough about handcycles to help you But I'm sure it could be done, anything is possible...A pic of your bike would help to give you ideal's.

I think an electric hub motor would be just the ticket for one.

You use your hands instead of your feet to pedal

I'm sayin' TWIN ELECTRIC HUBS on the rear wheels.
