The green spring grass looks great in beulah.. I think there’s an old proverb “ the man that reads the instructions is the wisest man in the room” 🤣🍻🍻

I do love the Trike smile ( any time you ride you smile)

Man it looks like you guys put in some Miles on those trike's ..they look like a lot of fun

@JohnSwitzer 3 года назад

No where near as many as we would like. Its getting to be so hot now that we can either ride, work in the shop or work in the yard before noon.

@jeffgrier8488 3 года назад

That's a neat setup, i'll bet it comes in handy on a hot sunny day.

@douglasfathers4848 3 года назад

Good to see mate , Keeping that hot sun off Janet now wears yours . :)

@JohnSwitzer 3 года назад

I haven't bought one yet, but it looks tempting

@gurvinderkau1e5w18 3 года назад

Nice one. Protect from sun. U both seem to have lot of fun on trikes. Enjoy👍👍🔥🔥🔥

@JohnSwitzer 3 года назад

Yes, they are a great way to get a little fresh air and exercise.

Thanks for sharing with us John, looks like that is going to work, pretty slick unit. Fred.🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋

He plays a mean banjo! I have a veltop for my cruiser, get a lot of curious looks and its terrible in the wind but its super nice to be able to keep the sun off your face without having to use sunscreen or wearing a hot ninja mask that envelops your entire head and neck. Avoiding sun while cycling and still staying comfortable is actually really really tough. Veltop is the best solution I've found so far. On my upright cruiser still have to protect the back of my head and neck though.

Cool trikes!

@peterpiper487 9 месяцев назад

Now all you need is an electric motor and a solar panel on top of the canopy to charge the battery.

@davidhenry4356 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing - any reason you could mount it closer to the rear of the seat (or ever on the rear seat.)

@poindexter1387 2 года назад

Thanks John for sharing....but the real question.. Did ya have any parts left over? Lol...looks like fun. 🔥🔨

@JohnSwitzer 2 года назад

Only the ones meant for optional setups.

That mount provides a good location to install a slow-moving vehicle triangle.

@roywilkie9577 Месяц назад

somebody please tell me what's better about this compared to the kayak canopies you can find on Amazon for like 1/5th the price.

@SolarizeYourLife Год назад

You think it is strong enough for a cigs solar panel???

@barbarahutchinson9469 Год назад

Could you still fold a foldable trike (catrike 559) with this folded up but on? If not, do you need tools to get it off?

@JohnSwitzer Год назад

It would probably need to come off, but just removing the canopy isn't too difficult.

@robertcutburth3745 3 года назад

I wonder if my COPD would let me ride one of these bikes

@JohnSwitzer 3 года назад

Talk to your doctor. I will say that these do allow a more natural position that makes it easier to breath, also easy to take a break.

@robertcutburth3745 3 года назад

@@JohnSwitzer thanks for the input John. I have an appointment tomorrow will check on it. I've already switched from a coal gorge to gas because of the fumes the coal gives off. My new Chili forge works great.

@darylogle6696 2 года назад

@gardenman3 2 года назад

How do you get it on and off if you have to transport the trike?

@JohnSwitzer 2 года назад

The front straps have quick release buckles, then the majority of the canopy removes easily and stores in a pocket on the back of the unit. For highway travel I would probably remove the top portion of the rear bracket to keep it from catching the wind. But none of this is particularly difficult.

@ukulelefatman 3 года назад

Those big tires are really inefficient. High pressure thin/smooth tires would probably double your speed and efficiency. I used to have 110 psi silk racing tires on my bike. I would be flying by, coasting with ease as those with knobby tires were peddling DOWNHILL. If you are on paved roads, ditch the knobby tires.

@JohnSwitzer 3 года назад

Seriously? Do you think we didn't do our research when we bought these trikes? When it comes to out list of priority's for what we wanted speed doesn't even make it on the list. Our previous trikes with thin, smooth high pressure tires wouldn't hold traction on the dirt roads to get us home so we never rode them.

@honthirty_ 3 года назад

You tell him. John!

@dragonstonegemironworkscra4740 3 года назад

Don't reckon I'd take the Switzer family as the type to need alot of speed. Give there's a good bit of off paved road adventure the higher fraction and smother ride would be a great boon I'd reckon
