Tom, I take it that by high you mean the tie rod in is setting on top of the plate and the nut is under?? I will tri turnning them over as you suggest and see...
Tom or anyone, Where can I get a pair of the adjustable handlebar headtube mounts??? The latest ABTT's come with a fixed length of handlebar welded to the head...
I actually just bought one and installed it on my ABTT. It's a 14 speed internal gearing hub and it rocks! The hub comes with a manual that resembles a...
Yes had a 20" wheel sitting around and put it on and tried it. Really like it, with the seat all the way down and the lower 20" wheel it is a real wind...
The only adjustment available to the handlebars on the ABTT is sideways (clearance between the hips). You will need to hacksaw the arms off and buy the parts...
Yep... You can go Low/Low by putting the plate below the steering arm and the rod end below the plate. You have it in a High/High position now. Again, all...
Phil, If you go to the pictures and look up "Cliff's Pix" or any of several others with trikes, you will find some photos of how we have been modifying our...
Thanks for pointing that out, Tom. I was pretty sure I saw a triple twenty-incher trike somewhere in the Photo section. Sweet machine there, Paul. Will it...
I haven't tried a Rohloff yet, but I'm getting pretty close to pulling the trigger on a NuVinci CVT - just the weight that's holding me back! Cliff Nigel...
Well... NOT QUITE! I purchased one last year... started to install it, and stopped. I have many projects in various stages of completion (or lack thereof), but...
Hank, Here's another thought: http://www.terracycle.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc? Screen=PROD&Store_Code=T&Product_Code=accmt&Category_Code=Acmts I use one of...
Tom, The hub is actually quite heavy...I was surprised. I'm guessing that the unit weighs 5 LBS...? The construction appears to be indestructible and was...
Cliff, Since I don't race my trike, I don't get overly worried about weight. I think one has to consider that reliability and gear range is king on a...
Marc...WTF man...LOL!? You have a Rohloff and you haven't used it yet!!? I highly recommend taking that hub and your recumbent into your LBS...it's not a...
No! The Nu-Vinci is a self contained internally "geared" hub - but with an infinite (no quotation marks necessary) number of ratios across a 350% range, and at...
You are asking exactly the right questions. 1) The steering geometry isn't noticibly affected by dropping the rear wheel by 3" since the wheel base is so long....
Cliff, Now I'm really intrigued about this Nu Vinci...there are some cool products available out there. Have you heard about these semi- automatic gear...
Tom, Have a look a picture #2 on Paul's 20" rear wheel ABTT pictures. you can see that this head tube is made so that the angle can be rotated in two...
A couple of year back I looked at the ABTT on the actionbent site and the model then did have the adjustable head tube for the handle bar. Look a "paul's 20"...
True, that is modified. They never delivered the trike in this way. The only adjustment you cannot make with this is tipping the handle forward and backward...
....this may be getting a little out of hand. The NuVinci weighs over 8 lbs, and like the Rohloff, costs about a grand. You all do realize you can get a Bionx...
Yes, but where I ride, an electric vehicle is illegal. Most county and all state & federal parks prohibit motor vehicles on "bike" paths. Besides, I LIKE...
Bugsy, I'm going to install a Bionix system when I'm 70 years old...LOL! I know of one other guy who has installed the Bionix system on his trike...he seems...
When I am sitting in my seat the back of my skull comes to rest at the top edge of the seat. I've put the seat in the upright position and used one of the...
At the gym I've noticed some guys using elastic straps to wrap their knees when they get on the leg press machine. I was wonder could something like an elastic...
Anyone come up with a head rest for the standard seat? From: actionbent@yahoogroups.com [mailto:actionbent@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of dmorellonh Sent:...
Thanks for replying, Paul. Can't wait to borrow the 20" single speed wheel from my niece's kiddie bike and try that on my trike. Her wheel is in shocking pink...
They have been selling on eBay with a "buy it now", but I just checked and found no current listing. I'm sure it will be back up soon enough, maybe a supply...
