Average Cruising Speed???   Message List

Re: Average Cruising Speed???

Hi Philip,

I've owned an 06 Bacchetta Corsa and various Catrikes. For comparison, here are
my
typical sustainable speeds on flat rides.

Corsa 18-22
Catrike 700 16-20
Catrike Speed 15-18

I could push any of these speeds quit a bit higher in short bursts.

Interesting that you bring up a Corsa. I have been stuck between a Corsa and a Cat 700. I am selling my Rans to get something quite a bit faster to keep up ...

I've been riding trikes since 2000. The Corsa was my first bent bike. I just found that, even though I'm a bit faster on the Corsa, I have more fun on a trike....

To what would you attibute the greater speed on the Corsa? I can hit 22-23 on my Catrike Road, but it needs to be dead calm (or with a tail wind, 26, MPH). ...
