USX Trike Wanted   Message List

Re: USX Trike Wanted

Terry,

I have a new USX that I want to sell. I purchased it in Nov. and have
ridden it less than 200 miles. I have modified it by adding a 4th
chainring, a mountain tamer. It is a 16 tooth chainring that gives a
very low gear inch. I have also added a 11 - 34 chainwheel on the back
with upgraded rear derialleur, upgraded front derialleur and chain
cranks. I don't have the specifications for the upgraded components
right now as I'm taking the trike to a bike shop on 10 March to have
it fine tuned. I will get the details from the bike shop then.
Currently the rear derialleur is a long cage and I'm replacing it with
a short cage to give more ground clearance.

I was not satisfied with the single wheel drive and the ground
clearance of the rear derailleur where I ride. I cannot get out of my
shop and down the driveway without making contact with the ground.

I have ordered a Greenspeed Anura from Utah Trikes with a Shrumph
drive and Alfine transmission.

I paid $1600 for this trike and I would sell it for the same amount
with all of the upgrades included for free. It is a much better trike
then original. With the very low gearing it makes it very easy to
climb hills. It just will not climb the dirt roads that I want to
ride. The front wheel jumps to the left on the very steep dirt hills.
I have no trouble on the pavement.

I can even deliver to you for gas expenses if you wish. I live in
Bethesda, AR with is just outside of Batesville, AR.

It will be ready for sale after 10 March. Let me know.

Dennis
