It seems like your channel is re-returning to being focused primarily on travel and trike related activities, which is awesome! I wasn't too into the politicization of your channel as there's enough/too much of that content out there, and I primarily watch content like this to decompress and get away from all that stuff. Good to see you on the trike and good to see you happy.

[@arnegerhardsen3755]

Hello Matt. I'm a big fan of your tours and your trike, and have seen all the tour reviews while I have been bedridden 24/7 in more than 2,5 years after an allergic reaction of a vaccine. It's a lifelong injury, but now I'm able to use my indoor wheelchair for one hour until 3 times a day, to walk just a few steps with crutches when I'm rested. Specialists in my injury have found and tested that I'm in a laid back position like on a recumbent trike can make untill 30 % of my normal pedaling strength for untill 15 and maybe up to 30 minutes with high electric assist. I have to use a cushy ride with good suspension and balloon tires, but if/when the nerves in neck are strained, my legs stop working, and I have to go all electric home for treatment and good resting of my disabled body. In Norway and Europe we have a regulation where disabled people can gef aprowel for electric wheelchairs and el-scooters at max 15 km/h. Most people with such disabilities use a wheelchair or scooter, but with the possibility for electric drive at untill 15 km/h on a trike with wheelchair mode more people could choose a trike which is better for their helth. I have been active in sports, biking,running and kayaking all my life, and for most people like me a trike is better than all electric wheelchair. And for me the trikes from Azub has the best and needed suspension, and the people at the factory are looking like nice people. I think a good advice from you to your good friends at Azub would do them a great faviour as the best trike for disabled people with some pedaling for their helth when they were able to this in such a wheelchair- or scooter mode. Thanks Matt and Best Regards from Arne in Norway

That’s a lot of work. Thanks for the ride.

[@JaYoeNation]

it was a lot of fun!

[@TheSouthernTriker]

This was awesome Matt you stayed out front in front of the upright riders too most of the time seemed like.

[@JaYoeNation]

haha yea.. im a beast on that thing... apparently

[@brianwiirre5110]

Great video Matt! There is definitely a TiFly X in my future. I’m glad that AZUB has partnered with you. I’m sure it will increase awareness and sales of their excellent products here in the U.S. That’s a good thing for everyone!

[@goriverman]

That looks like a blast to ride. Cadillac of trikes. Doesn’t get much better than that. Always loved the scorpion too.

[@ChisWest]

Great to see the first ride on the new trike … its looking great. I’m going to consider a 26 inch wheel set for my next trike. Glad to know your trike was found.

[@FloridaManPat]

Beautiful trike !! Hope all is well Matt !! Can’t wait to see ya out there . You have my support 110% .

[@roberttengler7100]

Looking forward to more van life/trike adventures!

[@velocelt]

Man, you are really killin' it with your editing skills, musical choices, and all the camera and drone shots you work into a video! Really, the beginning of this video was so incredibly cinematic. You really have a flair for producing extremely enjoyable videos. I like your mix of riding and the social aspects and your commentary about the trike, travel, and even musing upon the lives of the people whose houses you're passing by. You're a great visual, storyteller and I immensely enjoy watching your videos and appreciate you sharing your journey.

[@MSSmith1022]

I am working on saving money for my Ti-Fly X, and I hope to have as much fun riding as you appear to be having. Bright Blessings to you and your family.

[@rollingreclinerRecumbent]

The shifter is actually right side up because it fits in the gripping part of your hand just as it would on an upright bikes horizontal bar.

[@JaYoeNation]

Yea…but my last one was on the bottom.

[@daviddickmeyer5231]

Nice trike! I wonder if 24” rims would be a nice compromise. Also, what sizes are your two front chainrings? I rode a Ty Fly about four or five years ago just when they were coming out. It’s a great trike but I opted for a Catrike Road because of the price. Now I wish I had purchased the Azub! I’m looking and the pricing is $2000 higher! Wow! Hindsight really is 20/20! Enjoy your new ride. I can’t imagine the price that yours was if you include your Rolloff and all the goodies!

[@waynesbutler7834]

I have missed that recumbent smile you always had when doing these types of vids , love the shots and the editing and the trike looks better then version 1.0 . How does HP feel about the brand change although the staff at AZUB are like family but that is the effect you have on people Matt . Jayoe

[@JaYoeNation]

HP was sad to see me go.. but i wanted to try something new.

The Azub website says there are no bicycle dealers in the entire US who sell Azub. I think their website has problems. I will check again next week.

No power on the new ride. I enjoy sweating.

[@maxsudoplatov4850]

[@sharkmentality9717]

I added a hub motor and throttle on the right transferring my Rohloff to the left. Which means it's upside down. Quick transition!

[@whodunit5621]

Which wheel?

[@EZSteve]

Can AZUB set up a Ti-Fly X for someone if they want the traditional brake and shift cable interface with the hand grips, as found on all other trike brands and models? steve

[@JaYoeNation]

Hmmm. Not sure. I bet they can, they just like to pull the cabling thru the frame. It keeps it a lot cleaner under as a trade off for coming out the tops of the handlebars

[@kjevers1]

You went pub crawling, Euro style.

[@rogermcewen7378]

Hmmm, how many beer stops? Seemed to be a little melancholy there at the end.

[@jeffdulaney179]

What do you think of the automatic shift would you own that known the miles you put on

[@JaYoeNation]

i would love an electric trike to be honest... but there are weight considerations... the shifting was smooth

[@chrisjensen8369]

What happened to the Schlumpf Mtn Drive? I thought you were going to use it along with the Rohloff Speedhub.

[@JaYoeNation]

AZUB recommended against it. I talked about it a few episodes back.

[@chrisjensen8369]

The pics of your TiFlyX seems to show the bottom bracket she'll is a bit thinner walled than my Catrike Expedition. That could be it. I haven't found your explanation video yet. Keep up the good work. Your video production quality is excellent & I enjoy the way you intersperse drone video.

[@rdkuless]

How do those ergonomic levers feel.?. they are flipped from your old trike's levers..

[@JaYoeNation]

They took a little getting used to but I like them. Less stuff hangin under the trike. I do like the HP wrist rests. Miss them.

[@rdkuless]

@@JaYoeNation I flipped my levers back to the standard recumbent positions.. And i did order/add the HP wrist rest on my AZUB.. I just put a 52v24ah30a Samsung 50E battery on my T-Tris.. I now have a 120 mile range. :) that makes me really happy..my BBSHD works well with a small chainring to keep the motor spinning fast and cool. And with the Rohloff hub i have really good range and power/speed. I wish it had been dry when you visited so you could see for yourself.. Rain is not my favorite.. :) R

[@pooddescrewch8718]

How are those for potholes ? I imagine they are hard to fully dodge

I went full offroad in Slovakia... you will see that and answer...

[@trwashere5906]

I'm curious as to why the shifter 3:38 had to be positioned upside-down. [Edit-Got the answer from the comments.]

[@rollingreclinerRecumbent]

Considering dexterity of the hand and original design of shifters and brake levers, those on AZUB trikes are right side up. All other trikes have their controls upside down just to facilitate simpler cable routing.
