Dad's new bike - what is it?

dad's new bike.jpgWell it's a trike and he loves buying these kind of crazy things, he'll probably do it up for cycling with the ageing Labrador or something?
Well what is it, can't quite see the head badge, but it's definitely not a spesh, ignoring the stickers!

Some trikes adapted for use by disabled cyclists have weighted pedals to make locating your feet easier, and providing a more stable platform. Could be a homemade adaptation.
Smurfs though. Far more likely.
maybe their right leg was shorter than their left...
Smurf would explain the colour.
Fair point, the seat does look pretty damn low already though.
So - you think the previous owner was a smurf???
If the seatpost's stuck / can't be lowered further then the only way to reach the pedals would be to make them bigger
yeah, the drive side one looks like it's got a block of wood stuck on it
The triangular frame structure behind the seat is identical so I'd have to agree
But far more importantly ... what is up with those pedals?!?!
They're not "pedals", madscotrider....they're paddles.
