Yes there are indeed two

Submitted by polyglot on 03/14/2009.

Yes there are indeed two brakes on the front wheel: one Paul cantilever one and another Universal side pull. I used to ride a home made trike back in the 80's. The rear end was made up of steer tubes as axles, that ran on headsets as axle bearings inside head tubes. The hub flanges were washers that were brazed onto the steer tubes. the rest of teh bracing was made up of appropriately cut up steel handlebars.

I love racing trikes. It's unfortunate that there are no regular manufacturers.
