Diy Trike How Do You Add Gears On A Shwinn Tricycle?

How do you add gears on a shwinn tricycle? - diy trike

I bought my wife a shwinn meridian tricycle, his single speed. I would add 3 speeds for those who are a little less painful for them (you do not increase with driving a bicycle or a tricycle before and asthma).

I am a DIY kind of decent jobs, so can you if you have a list of components that need to buy for this motor tricycle with different speeds, really appreciate it. I do not need super-duper components, Shimano way to ... Thank you!

  1. I think this can be done. You can do yourself if you have experience with bike maintenance. If you look at the back of the box, you are moved, the chain is seen with a stroke, then another running back in the chain make the wave. You need a special center also has teeth. How to convert this to a speed of 3 to the speed of the wave of a single clearing-3 speeds, but it must not change the two teeth on the rear axle. In fact, it is a question of reparation. I recommend selling the trike you and buy you a speed of 3, the conversion is expensive.

  2. Um ... can be done, but it is difficult and you will not be able to use Shimano. You will receive a Sturmey Archer AW3 center with a cable must be long enough lever and a trigger.

    It seems that you can see things and see how that fits together and is separated very clearly how it works in the system. Depending on May Schwinn trike you need to change the drive shaft on the other side ... Even if you are a close-up that should be immediately apparent.

    May a good idea for an old Raleigh 3-speed manual or Hercules in a garage sale and just look at how the disorder on a normal bicycle. So you can take the pieces and put on the tricycle.

    I have asthma and 2 Level bicycle over 5000 miles per year. This will make you feel better as time goes by.
