Since Bentup cycles owner Dana Leiberman bought Bacchetta are they still making these carbon trikes, or was it a short niche build?

I've been using Crankbrother Eggbeater 3's for over12 years on my Catrike Expedition. Good attachment & float.

I have gone to Kampway Pedals and love them. Don't use any straps and my feet stay put. Use them on my Catrike Dumont Trike.

I now use the Pedaling Innovations "Catalyst" pedals on my recumbent trike. These pedals are unique in that they are full-foot support pedals, which eliminates totally any foot discomfort or pain, such as hotspots. With the Catalyst pedals, I am no longer pedaling on my toes (the balls of my feet), which translates into significantly more power delivery potential with each pedal stroke because the issue of ankle instability is totally eliminated. I used SPD clipless pedals, starting in 2009, on my long distance recumbent trike tours. The clipless pedals typically cause riders to experience foot discomfort as the hours roll on, necessitating stopping the trike and walking around for a minute or two so that the feet can feel normal again. I endured this type of pedaling, which I was led to believe was the most efficient, up until July of 2022, at which point I saw that another triking friend was using the Catalyst pedals, so I decided to give them a try. Having used many different traditional pedals over the years, I can say without hesitation that the Catalyst pedals are superior. I can pedal as long as I want, as far as I want, and as hard as I want, without any foot discomfort or pain whatsoever. The Catalyst pedals are a platform pedal, the same width as any common platform pedal, but the thing that makes the day and night difference in foot comfort is that they are noticeably longer than all other platform pedals. This allows the rider to place the arch of the foot directly over the pedal axle (spindle) line, thereby using the full power of the legs without any ankle instability or distortion. When the ankle is a factor in pedaling, as is the case with most riders using the balls of their feet, power is lost in that instability. A full-foot support pedal eliminates this power loss, as well as hotspot issues. These pedals are professional grade aluminum with traction pins. When I first got them last year, I was a little worried about a foot slipping off while riding, but this has never occurred. The 18 traction pins on each side of each pedal keep my fee on the pedals, even at stops, or when an unexpected bump jars the foot slightly on the pedal. The key to this full-foot support pedal is foot placement on the pedal ... The arch must be directly over the pedal spindle to realize the benefits of the pedal (otherwise, it's no different from a standard platform pedal where riders are simply toe pedaling). steve

Weight limit for this trike?

My first trike was a Trident Spike 2. It was a decent trike for the cost but it had stability issues at speeds over about 10-12 mph. The place I bought it at could never correct it. I traded it in toward a Hase for my spousal unit. I should have bought a Stowaway 2.

What about using with a delta trike? Would you need two rollers?

Had dropped leg twice bounce off asphalt. Ouch! Worse by far is leg going under the trike frame. Use full-foot-support heel cup pedals here with all the nylon straps removed. No pedaling upward, but I don't do that anyway. Gary AKA: "Jason Stillwater" in the recumbent world.

Great explanation thanks for showing.

Thanks Dave for these great tips! I have never tried the one side sit method before, but now I will give it a shot next ride. I don't lock the brakes prior to entering the trike, but I do use my thumbs and fingers on each hand to hold the brake levers on, in order to achieve the same effect (my fingers are behind each grip, and my thumbs are what actually apply the brake levers). Good video! steve

I've switched to the Pedaling Innovations Pedals with an aftermarket strap . Just couldn't get the hang of the clipless pedals .

Every trike rider should watch this video. After using clipless pedals ( with foot pain) I tried the platform pedals with the pins . Up hill was fine but down hill with no pressure on the pedals and some bumps my right foot came off and under the frame it went at 22 MPH. Needless to say it was 8 weeks of rest and using a boot for the torn achilles tendon to heal and get back on the trike. I'm hoping more trike riders watch this video. Thank you for doing this.

Your videos are very informative.

Very helpful, a great presentation. I like the helping arms connected to the frame.

Still enjoying mine (over many years), and have made modifications since then. Changed the gearing system to an 11 speed rear sprocket assembly. Moved the vertical steering post all the way forward and then added a modified set of handle bars to accommodate were I wanted my elbows and hand positioning to be at. This is relative to the front of my body ( due to the maximum upright seat position...my choice). Moving the vertical post forward meant I had to modify the aluminum slats for the front fenders as they were in the way. Still treating it as my experimental vehicle and seeing what I like to see on trikes relative to the trike industry as a whole. My next focus will be on the seat.

I recently purchased a used one of these used and would like to know more background. Anyone know how many were made, or how to read dates from its serial number?

thank you very much you are very helpful.👍👍

I received my new TerraTrike All Terrain last month. I'm still getting it adjusted to fit me, but it is going to be a great trike.

Thank you for the video

Like your third method best. Both tadpoles and deltas here. On a delta sit side-saddle, swing one leg over frame, while seated. Even doable to/from a wheelchair on a delta trike!

I have used my MR110 for a year and a half and it works great! I like how easy it is to put my trike on the trainer. I had some concerns about the trainer when I started using it. I contacted the company and the trainer's designer walked me through the problem (my tire was out-of-round).

do you shift to the gears for going up the hill to put it in the lowest gear? good video

Hi, guys, can you ship to the uk?

How do I change from Km to Mph on my Trident Espike

Very helpful video. Thank you very much with greetings from germany.

Never mind I found a release button on the side I had to push and I’ve got it thank you

I have not used my trident spike Trike In two years I have filled up the tires I have got the brakes on lock I have remove the seat I have taken a lever down below and let it hang as you suggested and the bike will still not fold

I didn't realize until a few weeks ago that you all had been making so much video content. It's great stuff, keep up the good work!

Nice video... Thanks Dave (Josh, Jordan)

Ambient sound would be much better than that music.

Thanks for sharing. Looks like a lovely ride.

Best bicycle store (and employees) you will ever find🚴

Bonjournicce to meet you! thank you. excellent masterpiece.Connecticut, ))

Great job guys! It's a great trail, try it folks, it's a wonderful experience!

Very pretty ride. Enjoyed the video. Is there any money in the budget to pave it and make it a smoother ride?

Beautiful 🚴

Price ??

Sound is completely desync from film

Alas, production of the carbon trike has been returned to the Swedish company who created it. I guess this was a limited partnership. Bummer because there are probably no dealers in the U.S. for this amazing, carbon trike.

bummer such a great bike shop is no where near me. I envy the locals that have access to this shop.

Available in India?

That’s what it’s all about. 👍

Do you have prices ?

Thank you for the best explanation that I have seen as a new trike owner.

I wish I had a place around here like that to ride where you don't have to worry about getting killed from behind.

Reminds me of when I used to do the Chariton Classic Bike ride. We stayed overnight at Red Haw before the ride.

this is great. glad to see it and how you move it around and the purpose behind some of the parts. my 559 kickstand (thanks for showing what that is!) seems to be missing the rubber(?) end piece. can that be purchased or do i need to buy a whole new kickstand?

Just hard to understand - a shop having such access to many manufacturers & models - not showing at least 1 (one) delta. For those new to 'trikes' - you become yet just another LBS (local Bike Shop) - that gives short shrift to the 'other' form of trikes - like most of the others around the country.

Why does your model have Schwalbe Marathon 1.75" tires instead of Big Ben 2.15" that are listed on the TerraTrikes site for the Rambler?
