So I am interested in touring on a tadpole trike from Kansas City to Seattle. Been doing a lot of pricing and looking at what other members have done. Chatting with several people about doing this and thought id put it up for more to have a look.
Here is my current plan.
KMX frame
24" rear wheel with moped tires around.
Unsure on rear gearing. Looked at hubs, derailleurs, just not sure yet. So far kinda on the N360 only because it comes with the trike i would order.
1650 Watt Cyclone double freewheel kit for recumbents. would eliminate this completely if i knew the Bafang would complete this on its own.
750 Watt Bafang BBS02 Crank motor on PAS.
48v 40ah lifepo4
Pulling a trailer with camping gear/dog total weight around 650 lbs. (trike, rider, dog, trailer, equipment)
Will have fairing and a wrap around rain cover.
Looking for a top speed of 35 mph. The cyclone says 45. Im sure thats inflated. Not saying i want to tour at this speed (more like 19mph). but have it available to me with out the trailer and all the weight.
This has just been my solution
What would be your solution to this scenario traveling 1800 miles from the midwest to pacific nw on a e trike?
