CONVERSIONS

Roadsmith Trike Conversion

Independent Rear Suspension with True Track Stabilizer Bar
Roadsmith was the first to offer independent suspension for trike conversions over 10 years ago. The ability of the suspension to react positively to bumps in the road creates a much smoother and safer ride than a solid-axle suspension. The beauty of independent suspension is that when one wheel hits a bump, that wheel quickly moves to absorb the bump, then the stabilizer and shock system returns the suspension to its proper position. The 5/8” diameter anti-sway bar uses torsion effect to keep the trike righted or sitting square to the ground. This is the same technology used in almost every car and truck today. It’s obvious that independent suspension is being adopted by all manufacturers of cars, trucks and ATVs because of its responsive handling and superior ride.                                       

Longer Wheelbase
The wheel base of the finished trike is longer than the stock bike. This additional length positions the rear wheels behind the passengers seat area. Rather than sitting right on top of the wheels, where the passenger is more likely to feel the impact of bumps, the passenger is forward of the wheels, making the ride much more smooth and comfortable for the most important rider.                                                                              

Premium Disc Brakes
Large disc brakes more than handle the stopping duties of our trikes. Disc brakes have a light weight design, are easier to apply, have more stopping power than drum brakes, and there’s no maintenance or adjustment.                                                                 

Trike Engineered Steering Kit
Simply put, a steering kit is like power steering for your trike. It reduces your steering effort by half. On a trike, we are not counter steering, but rather steering. That is the opposite of what the front end was designed to do. With our steering kit we reduce the trail in the front end to give you better leverage to steer your trike. This can really reduce your fatigue level at the end of a long day.

Custom Trike Conversion

Frankenstein Kit

This trike conversion is highly customizable and can be attached to almost any motorcyle that has a belt or chain drive. It is the least expensive model that Buckeye Trike offers and is a great option for any rider that wants a more individual look for their trike. Although there is no body on the kit for storage, fenders come standard and nearly any wheel is an option.

The Frankenstein company is an independent manufacturer located in Pleasanton, Kansas. So you know that American craftsmanship and ingenuity is built into evey conversion kit that is made. Buckeye Trike is a proud authorized distributor of the Frankenstein kit.
