:) It's a nice enough beast but I worry about the stability. It is a "delta" trike like a traditional kids trike. Mine is a "tadpole" design and when you brake and turn at the same time it is hard to move the center of gravity outside the wheel triangle so it is much more stable than a delta trike. The upside of a delta trike is you have more rubber to transfer power to the ground. The third major design is an "oxford" with a wheel layout like a motocycle sidecar combination. The stability of an oxford trike depends on which direction you are turning.

ReplyDeleteIt's probably the angle of the photo, but it looks like it'd have a large turning circle.
