    First attempt to build my own Streetfox

    Thanks Paul, indeed I have a pivot point with plastic bushings. This is not working at all. The back part is not rigid and has a lot of movement from left to right. I can tighten it enough with the bolt/nut system. Do you have experience with solving this problem with an axel as you suggested...

    Th Thanks Danny, you understood my problem. I can’t do your solution because I don’t have rear breaks.

    First attempt to build my own Streetfox

    Thanks stormbird. It seams easier to build an atomic bomb than finding out the length of a spoke. Man I never knew there was so much to know about a spoke. I want to build Street fox with warrior steering.

    Spokes

    Thank for your reply Danny. But I have no answers to your questions. I am glad I found someone who is willing to give it a try and I don’t think he even would know which method he is using as he probably only knows one. So if some could give me a rough answer, I could buy 3 or 4 sets with a...

    Hello, I am a Dutchman living in China and I want to build my first trike. I this city of 2 million people I went to 7 bike shops to get spokes in my 20 inch rim and 20 mm open hub with 36 spokes. Not one shop can do it.
