Tricycle with four-stroke engine

This tricycle was built from scratch by Peter Hahn (seen riding the bike). It is powered by a home-made 1-cylinder 150 ccm 4-stroke internal combustion engine (Otto engine), powered with propane gas and water-cooled (built in 2004). The transmission is belt-driven.

I love it! It's reminiscent of something Daimler Benz might have built in the late 1800's. Excellent work, sir.

Yeah you rock man..

That is fucking cool.

See if you can get some high pressure rear tyres for it, that hold say 120 PSI.

That way you can pump them up fairly hard.... not all the way, but you can get a much better ride, on bigger tyres, with much less rolling resistance.

Not sure of your rim size:
