Here is the result after 10 month of on and off work:
Edit: ABS Front fenders glossy finish 2.5mm thick I've made for my trike ( 16 x 3.0 with 160mm Disc brake rotor )
More pics here : KMX tadpole trike with canopy, Windwrap, cromotor, 10KW

I recently made a front suspension for any adult KMX Trikes:
Here is a 2 min video of the suspension in action:
Details can be found at https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=78893
With the increased width from the suspension, it is now possible to install 4" fat tire:
Edit: LED Flagpole rev 3
E-KMX tadpole trike canopy
Without Windwrap:
Rear view:
To get on the bike, you simply release the 2 front clips. The canopy's rod are made out of Fiberglass and always return to their "straight" shape. This is also what allow the fabric to stay stretched. I tested up to 60km/h and there is no flapping noise or deformation.
2 min Video:
This is not my design though, I was inspired by Ed miller to create this canopy: recumbent trike canopy – Tadpole Rider
See bellow for pictures of each components.
There is still improvement to be done, like suspension and front mudguards...
Bike: KMX typhoon
Motor: Cromotor V2 with a temperature sensor from Methods
Rear wheel: Mopped 16" alu rim with a motocross studded tire laced by JRH.
Controller: Lyen 10kW 24 FET modified by Zombiess.
Battery: 18s4p Lipo ( 75V, 32 Ah )
CA: Cycle analyst V3
Front tire: 16 x 3.0 e-bike tire, they fit on the standard 16 inches KMX rim.
Rear tire: SR714 Scooter Tire 90/80-16 TL, this one was mounted on a 2.15x16 36 hole aluminum rim
I also want to make a low center of gravity battery box. It will be as much waterproof as possible.
Here is a few pictures of the ongoing design:
The battery box will be made out of 12ga alu 5052-H32. It will be as low as possible and the weight will be distributed.
The chain path is changed and the pedal crank arm will be reduced from 170 to 95mm.
Here with the top panels, made out of 1/16" alu.
This one show how it look on top of the point cloud of the KMX Typhoon: ( shown with 170mm crank arm )
More to come.
