Hello all,

I am new here and just ordered my first Trike. I got one of the last KMX Cobras

and hope it ships out this week. I would like to get some accseories for it but

don't know where to start. First thing, since it is so low I'd like a flag. Can

anyone tell me where to get something OTHER than the orange flag on kids bikes?

I'd like something as visible but a little cooler. I am also looking at the

Panier wrack. Is the stock one that KMX sels the only one that will fit on it?

And.. where do I get nice bags to go on the wrack? Any other advice for a new

Trike owner that you can send would be great!



Thanks!

Gabe in NJ (USA)

The KMX Karts come with a square KMX white flag with a reflector band on

the margin. See if that would be close to what you are looking for.

AFAIK, yes. It has special mounts for the seat stays.

Most panniers are compatible (at least those that use Rixen and Kaul

mounts IIRC), you just have to check out if they're not too big. I

attach an image of a bag I've installed successfully, but YMMV.

A rear view mirror could also be a nice addition. :-)



Have fun with the Cobra!
