Once you’ve got all this down, you can move towards working on the rear section of the frame. Start-off with attaching the chain from main frame to the rear section. You’ll also receive a set of three wheels that you’ll have to attach to the trike. Just as important as the overall ride of the tricycle is the braking system.
The Huffy Nel Lusso trike features built-in reflectors on a number of different positions. If the cyclists want to descend or ride at a higher speed, they’ll put the cycle in a high gear. In comparison, while ascending or riding at a leisurely pace, they’ll put the cycle in a lower gear. Size is an important variable that you need to consider when buying a tricycle. If the size of the tricycle doesn’t fit properly, it makes them very dangerous to ride. Despite being very lightweight, aluminum is super durable.

Those are the main things you’ll need to worry about when finishing up with the rear of the tricycle. Cyclists can start off by installing the handlebars first.
It can produce strange noises at the back if you don’t keep it regularly oiled and tighten down the bolts on a regular basis.
