Looking for FRONT HUB for my KMX trike

[Doctorbass]

I wanna build a second set of front wheel for my kmx. I wanna keep the actual 16" wheel intact and just build two new one with the rim of my choice.. do you know any disk compatible hub that work on KMX?

Hey Doc
I did the reverse and used the plastic 16" wheels for the KMX in my Steintrike. Just needed to shim the 1/2" bearings to fit the 12mm Steintrike axle. There are many good trike hubs including the ones made for your trike. I'll bet FFR trikes in Pensylvania(sp?)has some as that is where I got my "lowrider" wheels from. U need 1/2 inch ID bearings in the hubs to fit the KMX.

Edit: Bitex makes a lot of trike hubs and the BMX crowd as well ans Greenspeed makes a number of hubs that would work.

Doc,

What you really need is a real motor for the rear wheel.

A lot of guys from Atomic Zombie (DIY bike forum) run these Bitex hubs and have good things to say about it.

contact them.....i believe they are around 50 bucks for two.

John.. you have not sit in that KMX i built.. so you have absolutly no idea how hard it can push you to the front .. and.. that's just with 11kW input power..

The motor i use was availlable for everybody few month ago... it's not a motor that can not be found.

Sure I do. You posted your time slips. We're going to take some bikes to a nearby full race facility quite soon.

Hey John.. the lastest timne slip is in the "post your drag race result" thread

The one with my KMX is not the best about speed but one of my best about 0-60ft time.. the trike is made for acceleration and top at 76km/h

the last result i have about my giant ( that i am repairing the rear wheel now) is 113km/h max speed GPS

the drag race result of the Giant are posted in the thread.. and also on my signature. ( they are from last summer.. now i'm running 30s so they are probably better.. like near 19sec or high 18 sec
