Electric Drift Trike

Formua E asked me if I I could take an electric vehicle to the Rome Formula E Race to ride around their track. Having only my Mr Bean Armchair, the tools came out and an electric drift trike was created. I have previously made a motorised 125cc drift trike and this electric version is not to better it, but to add an alternative. Over the three years of the motorised version being on Youtube, I have been sent loads of pictures from people that have followed the build video to make their own and I hope that this build will also tempt people to create their own. This particular build is a pricey one (around £2000) however in the future I hope to build a no weld, cheeper version.

The front of the trike is made using a bike from the scrap yard and the back end was made from scratch to accommodate the motor and the batteries.
I bought a funky moulded seat.... because it looks cool!

Here is the Video of me making and testing the Drift Trike.

The whole drift trike was transported to Rome in 'hold luggage' so it needed to come apart to fit in the suit cases. The hotel room was then made into a mini workshop while I reconstructed it!
