Well it wasn't that hard, the manual was good and it was only a matter of tightening a couple of screws. The only other part was putting the crankshaft in, the manual said that you could be making a couple of attempts before getting it right and said "Grease is good, don't be afraid of using to much". I have never been afraid of grease so I greased the whole thing up and got it right the first try!
And then I actually rolled the trike up to the cycle mechanics shop and got him to help me putting the chain on and adjusting the gears, He wanted payment in the form of having a go with it and he liked it a lot.
