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...
I'm looking for handlebar extenders to use on my 3Z trice under set steering. Not for lights and things, but to raise the actual controls up another 4 inches...
Hi, Â How about the extensions that are used on mountain bikes. They clamp on the ends of the handle bars. I don't know if the shifter etc., will fit. Â ...
Mike Thanks for the info. It was a huge help. Luis ... From: MIKE LEWANDOWSKI <mike_lewandowski_bcs@...> Subject: Re: [ez3-usx] Handlebar extenders To:...
Just found this group. Dont know if you solved your problem but yes I have the megarange 11-34 and it helped. At least one is on ebay today. I also changed my...
Top of the Morning, John! The USX Coupler/Hitch actually fits on the rear of the USX, SX, & HD. I got the idea for the hitch after seeing the Hase and...
Thank you. I have three herniated disks and mobility problems associated with that also. My wife still cannot keep up with me so linking them will keep us...
Thanks for the info. I found a 11-34 freewheel and had it installed. I also installed a smaller chainring. 18 I think. I now have 4 chainwheels, but I'm...
Dennis, Â Find out the capacity of the deraileur. It may not handle the smallest ring or the largest ring and nothing will make it work. Also, the rear...
Mike As soon as it warms up, should be 8 degrees in the morning, I'll get back on the project. I have found that with the lower gear I still cannot climb some...
How normal is front wheel hop on Sun USX trikes? My personal experience: Riding on paved roads and gravel bike paths, there are a number of crossings where the...
Steve, So far my experience with the trike is limited. I used to ride a Linear. However I have noticed the wheel hop and I just steer back on line if...
I have noticed the same thing, especially if I have to really start torquing to get up a hill. It has never really caused a problem though, you get used to the...
I get wheel hop all the time on hard startups even on the flats when I forget to shift down especially. This is because there is not much weight on the front....
EZ3usx one day old. Can I remove the chain tubes? They clatter unacceptably. I'd rather have the brake levers and shift barrels horizontal. Is there a bar with...
You can certainly remove the chain guard. The chain has a removable link, just pay close attention to chain routing when disassembling. Additionally, there are...
Anybody in the Midwest have a USX they would like to sell? My wife rode a Terra Trike for a few years, but her health is declining, so I would like to buy her...
