"If Worksman could incorporate using a Rholoff 14 speed internally geared hub on the drive wheel. I have friend who has one of these hubs on a Greenspeed GTR. The front shifting is a Schlumph Speed Drive crankset. This is the simplest form of 28 speeds available and offers a fairly wide range of gears. I must admit that shifting is definetly "unconventional" to say the least. You just keep twisting the grip shifter until you reach the desired resistance. It almost seems like it's broken because it never seems to reach the end. 'Round & 'round that shifter goes! And then to shift the front, you whack the crank with your heel and BOOM! Big change of gears! 14 NEW gears to twist through!"

Oh stop it pleeeese!! My heart can't take it!! Such a trike , to me, would be a true dream!!
