... Sorry if my comment felt sideways...and if that means you think it was in some way demeaning that certainly wasn't my intent. Like I said, I have followed...
wheel discs and the tailbox do help a lot as far as increased performance goes, plus the tailbox is a very handy place to put your bits and pieces. Discs added...
Greetings, I just wanted to tell you that I have posted a new episode of the podcast. It is an interview with Andy Kenny, a Dublin, Ireland cyclist that next...
... no harm done! so let's get into the discussion then! honestly i have a difficult time qualifying how the Artifice handles for 2 reasons. first, this is...
... That's about perfect, thanks. I do have one question...actually two, about your brakes. You said you have Avid 7's. Were they standard or did you have to...
Ah...I think I just answered both of my own questions. I wandered through the BROL thread and saw where your BB7's came standard but for some reason the BB5's...
... there are 3 PFD files that Kevin gave me, which are published specs for the Artifice. the brakes are one of the things that is different among them. i...
as far as a rear brake is concerned, I felt the same way, then I had the chance to ride with one, here are some of the reasons I like it: 1) it is so nice to...
... Thanks, Tom. I got to prowl around the ActionBent garage yesterday and noticed that all three of their folding trikes had braze-on's for rear discs. So...
My first and currently only bent is an USS RoadRunner ... while yes it was fun learning to ride it certainly feels more relaxed on the arms position ... why...
My recumbent trike originally came with 1.25" wide tires, which were inflated to 100 psi as the side of the tire said. My last set of front tires wore out and...
i currently ride a tidal wave with oss. it was extremely easy to get used to since i have been married for 33 years (same woman) and am used to the "begging...
Tire pressure and load on the tire are two different things and need not be related. The max pressure rating on the tire is when the tire may burst. Do not...
Turning radius, portability, style, ease of use (quick learning curve), and for some.. comfort. To name a few. I see many advantages in OSS though I do like...
Thanks Tom, I'll take it easy until my Schwalbe Marathon Kevlar belted tires arrive. It'll be my first time trying that brand. I've heard they're good. Tim ...
I'm getting frustrated and hopefully someone can offer some good advice ... About once a month I blow out my tube on the front ... it's the standard 20x1.25...
Is it always on the same wheel? Remove the tire/tube and check the rim tape to be sure it's reasonably good quality and completely covering all spoke nipples....
OK, so here's the skinny. If your AB has a plastic rim strip, discard it in favor or Velox Cloth tape. I don't think this is the issue, but try anyway. Second...
I think it is easier for the manufactures to design and engineer. Most of my recubent friends prefer the USS since is much easier on the arms. On long run,...
the pressure stated on the side wall is usually "MAX' pressure. That doesn't mean you must run the pressure that high. On my trike with the 100 psi tire I...
The problem is likely two-fold. I have this exact experience with the original tubes and the plastic rim "tape". 1st of all, the rim tape probably shows...
I just discovered that there was a box sitting on my porch. The Schwalbes are here! They do look a lot more rugged than the 20 x 1.35" Primo Comets I was...
I had one bent with USS. Once seated and riding it was kind of cool BUT it was akward to walk or move around. Went back to OSS Sent from my iPhone ... Perhaps...
Hi Bruce…I wish I could report that I rode all 3 and could relate what I liked and didn't about them. Thursday was a royally crappy Seattle day – gray,...
Steve- Thanks for you our detailed impressions. I'm in Spokane, and there is only one local option for trying recumbents. I was able to ride a Greenspeed,...
... You're welcome. Once you get it I'd be curious to know what you think. By the way, I know Wenatchee's not exactly next store but Go-Bent's a great...
