I hear that the new HD usx trike has better wheels but are they still lopsided? I had to rebuild my rear wheels for striength, so that all the spokes were the...
ive seen the new trikes and they are the same as the old ones with an angle , but they are also a bit larger and have a higher tire pressure of 110 psi I about...
I ride a Linear recumbent and on my normal route I reach downhill speeds of 30 to 40 mph. On one hill I go from 30 to 3 in a very short distance. How do you...
So I have A USX-3 with the Staton drive and a Honda motor. Which two wires do I short together to defeat that durn low oil engine cutoff. Every time I ride...
I've had my USX-3 up to 39.7 if I can believe my little computer on the bike. It was as fast or faster than I care to go again. I know what its like to blow a...
Roux loves to go on a bike ride. If I go outside and she sees I have my little Garmin Forerunner GPS unit we use on the bike, she runs to the patio and sits in...
What kind of dog is Roux? My German Shepherd used to run with the bike and loved doing it. Now he is almost 15 years old and can barely walk so running with...
Pat Roux is a Belgian Malinois or Malinois mix (one vet said mix one didn't LOL) She is a high drive, high energy 100% muscle girl :) Very happy to hear Maxie...
The Malinois is a lot like a GSD in the way they respond. My shepherd was so easy to train to the bike, I’m sure Roux is enjoying the experience. Be...
... Good to hear that I should have no trouble with downhill speed. I have a new USX to pick up this Sat. However I'm concerned that the gear range isn't low...
Ask your dealer about adding a Schlumpf Mountain Drive, described here: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/harris/schlumpf.html That would give you the lower range...
Thanks Jim, I had researched the Schlumpf Mountain Drive in connection with the Kett Wiesel Ride that I was interested in, It had the mountain drive and...
Hi everyone. Now that the daylight hours are gone for rides after work I'd like to put some lights on my new Sun Ez3 USX. I've looked at the Down Low Glow...
I'm having some trouble teaching my great dane to walk/run beside the trike. He runs on my left side & is fine in a straight stretch, but then when I make a...
The way I taught Roux was I would have her walking in a straight line and come to a complete stop. As I did this I would say "Stop" Then I would tell her...
I went to our local walmart store a nd bought 2 sets of bell bicycle lights that have the tail lite that comes with it and mounted them to the bottemof my...
Well, my dog is small so it was easy just to reach my arm out in the direction we were about to turn to give him a little pull in that direction. I am not sure...
Hello All! I must admit I have been browsing over many of the messages here for the last few weeks while waiting for my new trike! I was a fanatical 10 speed...
Since this is my first recumbent "09' EZ3 USX-HD" and I have only about 5 miles traveled so far I wanted to ask experienced riders this question. What do you...
Personally I like my legs to be at full extension when at the forward position. I would imagine you will hear several different suggestions, but it all comes...
A slight bend in the knee is appropriate. I moved my clips as far back on my shoes as they would go and that is the most comfortable placement for my feet. I...
Most sports medicine doctors and therapists will tell you that it is safer and healthier for your leg and hip muscles not to go into a full extension. That...
I only have almost 100 miles on my USX, but I have more than 4 thousand on my Liner bike recumbent. I have found that if I set the seat so when I am tight...
I find even a 1/4" difference in seat to pedal extension matters to me, so feel free to make small adjustments until it feels right to you, and then mark that...
Wow! Thanks to all of you for your replies! I will remember all the suggestions & ideas given & have already changed my original position per the suggestion...
I use spd cleats and love them but did have a little trouble getting into them on the trike at first. Now that I'm used to the new angle I'm getting into them...
Hi Everyone, I have done the "evil thing" and went back to riding road bikes. I know, booooo! ;-) I thought I would let you all know that I have listed my...
