I think its a combination of muscles getting used to the new bike and (possibly) toe-in settings. I was suprised at the speed (or lack of) at first, but once...
Is there anyone out there who also has experienced a severe shimmy when they take their hands off of the steering grips? I've got a 2007 Trail and I've...
... Ian at www.Catrike.co.uk sorted out my Expedition by checking the toe-in, removing an internal spacer from the headset and adding an external spacer below...

I'm having a discussion with a fellow trike guy about if riding a trike makes you burn more calories than you'd expend doing the same course at the same speed...
I have a cateye astrale 8 computer with cadence - I bought it on sale for $35 at performance bike - I love it! The cadence is a great idea, I discovered, it...
I would say yes: 1 more tire = more friction to overcome with road, more weight in bike, smaller diameter but bigger cross-section tires increases contact and...
Hello, I'm new to the group and I'm glad I found this site. Are there Catrike members out there who live in California? I would like to ride with other trikes...
Welcome, Rick! I don't live in California, so I can't help you much on that score. However, I think you might be surprised at how you can ride in traffic on...
I, too, have been surprised at how cars seem to notice my trike where they ignored my DF bike. I found this great alternative to the standard orange flag:...
