So I took advantage of this nice summer day and decided to work on the bike before it got below freezing again. Even at night after I got off work it was still in the 60's.
Anywho I had these sitting on the shelf for like a month because it's cold out and I'm known to be lazy now and then.

So I put back my original hubs and rims on, and was shocked how much of a difference they made. I never rode anything with a extended axel or spacers and it makes a huge difference on trikes. I'm not as nimble in the tight stuff but it's well worth the trade off. I was taking tight corners at speeds I never would of before in the backyard. Can't wait to take it out for a real ride.

Like I said it was dark so this is the picture you get. Time to keep watching eBay for more cool parts.
I passed on some floor boards a little back I'm still kicking myself for. But they went for a lot and were bent.
