How is the stability at high speeds?
High speed handling can be dependent on many variables; tire pressure, road surface, seat position, size of the rider, riding style, alignment of the front wheels etc. If you want to make sure you are getting the best possible performance from your TerraTrike check these elements to make sure they are correct: • Make sure you are running proper and consistant tire pressure. On higher pressure tires like the Kenda Kwest, Schwalbe Marathon, and IRC Metro you can drop to 80% of recommended pressure. • Front end alignment – measure the distance between the front of the two front wheels and then measure the distance between the back of the two front wheels. Start at neutral and add up to 1 mm of toe-in per tire to improve stability. Important: have a friend measure while your weight is positioned on the trike. Too much toe-in or toe-out will result in tire scrub while turning. • The TerraTrike will handle best the closer you are to the front wheels – if your x-seam gives you the option to g
