Hello! As some of you may recall, I ride an EZ3-SX rather than a USX and I have a reqest for information which I hope all of you who have any information for...
Hi Lois: Sorry, I can't help you on the clipless pedals but my feet have fallen off the USX at a very bad time. So it is a good idea. For the head light, I use...
Hi, I have been using the speedplay frogs for almost 10 years. They work great. I think locking your feet to the pedals is a safety issue. If your feet slip...
Thanks to those who have already given opinions. I was glad to hear a good review for the Speedplay Frogs as that is the clipless pedal I'm leaning towards....
Hi Lois, Clipless pedals are definitely an advantage on our trikes. Having your feet clipped in is much safer and makes pedalling a breeze. My wife and I both...
For a headlight, the Cat Eye HL-EL530 is amazing: 1,500 lumens on 4 AAs with 90 hours of run time. Details here: http://www.cateye.com/en/product_detail/345 ...
Update on clipless pedals: Be careful when installing Power Grips. You don't want them to rub against the crank arm, as that would both cost you power and wear...
Ken Do you now of any other sprockets that will give you a better shifting result? Would like to get up enough speed to keep up other conventional riders. ...
The gears and chain need to be clean in order to get fast shifts. Otherwise good old fashion friction shifters and regular gears (index shift uses special...
My only experience with sprockets is the change outlined below. I have discovered however, that it is going to be difficult to make the trike go any faster ...
Thanks Ken BTW...Grew in Venice/Santa Monica Area and know your area quite well. It would sure be fun to cruise the beach board walk..especially Venice. Thank...
As an update, I haven't decided on what lights to get yet, but my husband and I both chose the Speedplay Frog stainless pedals. They've arrived and we'll...
My Night Rider lighting system has finally worn out. After looking at the prices of new bike lighting systems I finally decided to go with a high power...
Hi. I'm new here. Also joined the Wizwheelz Yahoo group. I don't have a trike yet, and am down to those two choices. The higher seat of the Sun EZ3 USX is...
Hi George – Welcome to the EZ3 USX Group! Keep in mind that every case is different, so the main issue is what fits your needs, period. I am 63 yrs of age...
John, thanks for your excellent reply. I was wondering if anyone would answer, since my question appeared to be the first one posted in April for this group....
George - I've had my EZ-3 USX less than a month, so I cannot comment on any longer term issues. I did get a flat on my rear drive wheel in pretty short order...
... John, I was wondering if you could elaborate on how well the suspension seat bracket works and what effects it has on your center of gravity and overall...
Thank you, Bill. Your reasons for buying your trike appeal to me. I like the price, the height of the seat, the short distance to a bike shop, etc. It's good...
I ride a USX which I purchased in April, 2006 and my wife rides a WizWheelz TerraTrike Cruiser which I purchased in May, 2006. We both prefer the unique...
tklein, I like your theory about being more inclined to want to ride than write. I hope that's true for most of the Sun EZ3 USX people! The Sun trike really...
We may each only be one, but together we are many, and the overall effects of each of us doing what we can to help is large. I don't buy the theory that if we...
Thanks for your great post, Jim Strasma. This is now a whole new thread, unrelated, but I'll make a quick comment. Toyota and the other imports, as well as GM,...
I would like to add another question. Does the added seat height have a noticeable impact on the pedaling power to the cranks, since you are now raised that...
Hi Bill: The seat suspension may add as much as 2 inches in height (depending on your weight) but that does not impact the pedaling power or stability in any...
John - That is helpful feedback. Thanks. I will continue to keep the suspension seat bracket in mind as I do my next few hundred miles. I've already had a...
Just bought a this trike for my wife and she loves it. Tried to purchase a Cateye Cycle computer for it, but the bike shop said it wouldn't work on the trike...
Hi Bill: Welcome. The EZ 3 USX Trike has 20 inch wheels all around. The EZ 3 SX & AX, I believe have the 16 inch front wheels. I also have a EZ-1 and it has a...
