Paul it is hard to explain, but the scrub is either gone or so little I don't feel it. Do you have a newer ABTT or the older where there is no lean to the...
I added a Photo Album called 'Paul's 20" Rear Wheel ABTT'. The trike is just under a year old with about 1400 miles on it. The wheels do lean and it has the...
I agree that the 1 1/8" bracket is the way to go, it handles like a dream. The only thing I noticed which I have been harping on is that the steering being as...
Without going back to the beginning of this adventure, the issue is that steering geometry must be optimized on any 2 turning wheel steering system. I am not...
Thanks Tom, your link to those photos displaying hitch racks was very helpful. I suppose I should have looked at the photos before I wrote in; but, I'm new at...
I have a jetsteam oss after main chain probles I have, up graded to a terracycle Idler, fo my model i went with a over under modle (this completly negated the...
Would I be correct to say that the ABTT handlebars are 22mm diameter? I have an idea for new handlebar setup and want to make sure I have the correct diameter....
Yes, 22.2mm to be exact. Not sure about your question on the bar ends, as it has them now. I do know that the AB bars are not reamed on one end to accept the...
What I am thinking about doing is removing the old curved bar and using a straight length of 10" with a bar end holding the brake lever and the bar-end...
Hi Cliff, I like your hitch rack set-up...very simple. I wonder if one could put yet another bicycle ( two wheel variety ) on this rack? My wife requires...
Ah, I see what you're thinking now. I've looked into something similar, and what I found was that the bar end will NOT accept a bar end shifter unless you ream...
Hello Nigel, well, let's see, that's quite a list of questions. I think you may be able to fit an additional bike on the rack, if you had a four bike rack,...
Cliff, I ran into a problem with this idea I think, but not sure until I take some measurements, but I think the new handlebars would be on a downward slope....
I found the PDF for the Catrike handlebars, they are $99.00 per set. http://www.catrike.com/manual/adjustable_handlerbars.pdf Is the Catrike 1 1/8" for sure? ...
I'm not sure if they use 1 1/8" head tubes or not, mine is an earlier bushing design so I can't use it for reference, you'd have to ask them. It looks to me as...
I sent Catrike an email yesterday, I am not sure if they will answer, but I tried. If worse comes to worse I will ask the question on BROL. Joel ... earlier...
I found the specs for the handlebar on Catrike site, it is a 1" spindle, so that is out, I will have to do some more research, but I think it will lead to a...
Thanks Vic but take my word for it. I was an Engineer in a former life and I used my calipers to mic' the slot. I would have said "the drop was bent and I had...
Thanks Cliff, you've given me plenty to think about. After reading posts from other individuals in the AB group, I feel like they're freakin' NASA engineers...
I must be nuts because I did put the SRAM 3x9 on my trike and loving it. Just think, a long downhills and being able to pedal in 81st gear!... which in my...
Thanks for the inspiration, Ken. OK, I think I've worked out all the pieces I need to mount an idler on the headtube. The idler came on a couple of days...
Today I met with my riding club for a ride and an evaluation day. We meet and discuss different subjects regarding recumbents. The subject of steering on...
Joel, Thanks for these reports. This is very interesting to hear how the tests are going, especially when it involves the riders of the different types of...
I should point out that it would be a logical manufacturing option to machine the drop outs after they had been welded in place. This sequence would allow a...
Cool! Can you post pictures? _____ From: actionbent@yahoogroups.com [mailto:actionbent@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of recumbomatic Sent: Thursday, May 03, 2007...
Thanks. I'm pretty happy with it. I'm finding that I need to be really careful about heel strike with the new setup. Has anyone made any type of head rest for...
