How can you modify a bicycle into a tricycle, like in this picture,

Is it just me, or is the front of the bike melted to the tricicly part?

But seriously, the easiest (extremely easy) way to make a tricicle would be to buy two bikes and take out the wheel in the middle of the bike your making into a trike, and fit two wheels into each side. You can even make a quad bike that way!

It looks like he/she used this on the headlight of the bicycle, with a 4l bar/lightsaber blade attached to it to attach it to the box on the front (with probably some clips on the bottom).

I'm not sure about the wheels, I don't own any (or the bike).

Oh yeah, that sounds about right. It still would be easier to do it with the two wheels on the sides.

Are there any more pictures of tricycles?

I have seen one of these on Brickshelf some time ago...

But you are in luck! I built my own as well, and here is a detailed set of pics:

The trike is super fragile at the headlight part where the two sections meet, other than that the front wheels are inserted into faucet bricks and the wheel fits snugly in the little hole.

It is fairly straight forward how it is done, anyone have questions or need more pics, just ask.

I hope this helps!

Thanks for the instructions Polish Guy It looks pretty straight forward, but I have one question, is it stable?

It is some what stable, if you are using it for display and have the box built on top, it will stay together pretty well.

The front wheels do not roll since they are pressed into the faucet brick, so there is no playability.

I've had no problems with mine, sometimes the front comes off when moving it around the desk, but it stays together for the most part.

Hope that helped.

Is there any way to give the front wheels an axle, so that it can roll?

Not that I know of, because the axle is part of the wheel piece.
