Oh Gosh this is SWEET!!!! Approximately what kinda cost this setup woulda cost? Also do you think this kinda setup could be possible on an Azub mini 2 wheeled recumbent?
I've had one of these for several years and I love it. I have sciatic nerve damage in my entire right leg and it makes very painful for me to ride a normal bicycle . I bought this and the recumbent style with the comfortable seat is very easy for me to use. I upgraded the pedals to the type with the front toe cage on it to make it easier for my left leg to help make up for what my right leg lacks in strength. I am seriously considering an e conversion for it to extend my adventures.
Bought a TerraTrike Cruiser, not impressed. I have never worked with a more annoying setup. My frustrations with this flipping bike are at a max. I will never buy again.
I had bought the Feedback Pro Elite and will be returning it. Below it the review that I had wrote. WARNIG This Stand Won't Support 85 pounds!!! Claiming the ability to support bikes weighing up to 85 pounds, you would think my mid-engine e-bike that weighs less than 48 pounds (with the battery removed), would have no problems. Getting the jaws to lock to the seat post was an effort, but I was able to do this. However, when I tried to raise front or rear wheels up by a few degrees, gravity was too much and the head slipped. Let me add, I twisted the looking piece with all of my might as tight as I could make it. The irony, with 37 pounds under the weight limitations, this stand was overwhelmed. I contacted customer support. The agent claims the support is only up to 75 pounds and not designed for e-bikes... ...Why leave out this all important deal breaking info? I will say there are things to like. No assembly. Stores very compact. Lightweight. Its good looking with a nice fit and finish. I'm thinking bikes weighing at 25 pounds or less this would be a good repair stand. However, If you have a heavier bike, this repair stand is not a good choice.
I love mine, but folding is a pain IF you don't want to roll it into the dirt like in the video (then it is reasonably easy). I have tire fenders, and they scratch when you put it on the side.
He gets it wrong so many times that the entire video becomes pointless. 1: Put the brakes on and adjust one wheel to a straight position 2: Put some weight on the seat to simulate the rider. 3: Make sure you're leveling your measuring tool. If you're using a tape measure start measuring with 1" or 1cm to avoid inaccuracies. 4: Set the wheels in a 1-2mm toe-in position (depending on the wheelsize) to avoid wobbling and to make it run straight.
What is your opinion of these trikes from kmx, it seems most say they are a kind of toy nor for adults to ride seriously. Really would appreciate your thoughts as I’m considering purchasing one
I have a Terratrike Path i have a question..why are my front wheels a little loose all the bolts are tight and the wheel bearings are new but it's still a little loose.. I'm thinking it's the brass pin cups what do you say.
This is so helpful. thank you so much. Since I left Germany, retired from government service, I've not found but one bike shop that could properly adjust my gears. So, I need to learn to do it myself. Again, thanks. Lloyd
Dude I rode that for 9 hours in ocean city and at high speeds I spun out 6x. Thats because in a straight line your bike is stable but if you need to turn AT ALL the bike digs into the turn in a way thats extremely hard to recover from. I nesrly broke my ankles with how many Estops I had to do when brakes aren't enough. I ACTUALLY wanna buy one but I gotta mod the thing bc I want to add electric motors. No way I'm gonna go highway speed when I can't even get 20mph 😄
I find a right side mirror essential. In SoCal we have places where bikes have to move right across merging traffic in order to stay in the bike lane. (See Harbor Drive approach to the South Gate of Camp Pendleton as it merges with an I-5 off-ramp, or Pacific Highway southbound as it merges with Barnett in San Diego). I'll spend the extra $20.
Just picked up another one (used, this time) - the rear hubs are stuck on the axles - I am guessing they corroded on because the hubs are aluminum and the axles are steel) - anyway - I have 2 damaged rear wheels that need repairing (broken spokes) and can't get these rims off the axles on the bike - HELP.
I just got my villager today. I had an amazing experience with Utah Trikes. First that had it in stock!!!! Somebody was always available and if not I got return calls immediately...HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!!!
