Can’t give much help there mate although some members may be able to. Built a Lotus Seven replica once and had a great time doing it. Learnt a lot about the real design of a car through it. I know the reliant back axle lends itself to a bike engine well, ie chain drive can be adapted to suit driving two wheels via the axle. What engine are you using?


I’m going to try using the reliant engine but have to alter the bike frame a little to accommodate it. If the reliant goes ok I have got two Honda 400/4’s, I bought one as a doner for the other but I dont need the engine frame or front end so I’m thinking of having a go at making a trike out of that. My only problem there is how to go about driving the reliant axle with the chain !
