2is company,3 is a racket!

finally got the trego conversion done-well its nice and its cured me of 3 wheel lust,this is something for the streets and it is a whole lot better for people like myself then a "delta" ,the thing is I more or less cured my balance issues( seems less speed makes everything better-safer too,we are having an epidemic of whitetail deer if I hit one of those things at 40 mph,the stretcher will scrape my broken body up while the deer gets sore ribs. Its mounted on a new steel frame 26" inch step through-36 volt edition( plenty fast for a town with bike paths and gentle grades) realized I do not need so its going to be sold for 1/2 price,if I can I will post pictures,my old I Phone and network will not work together apparently sign me "old dog Leroy" hard to teach new tricks to.

Yeah, that looks really weird to me.
The woman looks like she's going straight, but the bike is leaning over?
Probably an illusion?

I'd like to take one for a spin though. I wonder if I could ride it no-hands?
I'll bet it's possible?

@kevinmccune, how does it ride and handle? Does it pull to the low side of the road like most rigid trikes? Or does the fact that it is able to lean solve that problem? When you say it solves your balance problems, does that mean it stays upright or is it easy to tip over?

you certainly do not need a kickstand and the hydraulic brakes are a bit touchy,finger tip will stop you
ts better then you think however
the guy looks like he's riding on a 700 c hybrid,wish I could send a picture its nice on the 26" steel frame "peacedove"

oh its much more stable then a "delta",the higher price version actually allows to dismount and take it with you like a roll on luggage.

I keep trying to reply and the site messes with me,anyway it works good and the hydraulic brakes will stop you with finger tip pressure,the platform is easy to haul about anything within reason you could conceivably haul and its easy to install or reconvert if you wish. don't need a kickstand with it and it has a parking brake,balance is easily found.

It sounds like it's perfect for you?
So why are you selling it for half price?

conceived in a fit of passion and most of the places I go are too rough.

That's an issue my wife is having with her Buzz Cerana trike - it seems to want to, very aggresively, head for the right-hand shoulder of the roadway. Is there a trick to dealing with this "feature"?

what I found out on a cousins Yamaha 3 wheeler was this the only why I could reliably steer it was to stand up and lean the way I wanted to go,the bike based delta 3 wheelers I had all seemed biased to the right side I don't know way,it just seemed so weird I didn't even want to try the 40 mph roller coaster hills around here,I figured I would react wrong and augur into a car or truck,I do believe a delta a trike with long forks and the proper "rake" would intuitively handle correctly,just my thoughts I never liked the delta trike,OTH some folks are fine with them,I would advise your wife to just keep the speed down and sooner or later the handling would probably become second nature( had a buzz trike once,even at 350 watt middrive 36 volt it actually handled the upgrades nicely. it seems to favor a bias to the right side.
