Lessss said:Recumbent trikes to me seem to be a great ride but also statistically the most likely to get killed driving. When a car passes you, you disappear.
Lessss said:I challenged somone to park their trike in the bike lane hop in their car with a camera and film passing the trike. They siad they would post the vid but never did.
Ypedal said:One beef i have is that on the trike, you cant bail in an emergency, not that i have ever had to do this on 2 wheels, but i've come close to having to jump off a few times and this would be impossible on the trike. ( stupid car drivers.. )
All in all, the trike is nothing but fun and smiles per mile.
Ypedal said:pendragon, it's setup right now with 24S (* 100v ) and 18fet controller stock max of 60 amps so 6kw on tap is what i'm currently running.
Tires make a huge difference, the stock k-rad front 20's wore out quick, i put a set of hookworms with extra thick tubes, way better. On the rear, i now have a Vee Rubber 20x3" and at top speed ( 65 kph ) i would enjoy a bit of suspension, dont need major travel but just a tiny bit of shock absorbtion would be nice.
for 2013, i'm upgrading the front disk brakes, and modding the controller for 100+ amps.
