"The real question is when will RBW release the prototype of the (lugged steel) tadpole trike they have secretly been working on? You heard it here first."
Hi John, Wouldn't that be something? I can only imagine how beautiful and expensive a Riv lugged steel tadpole trike would be...and what inventive name Grant would give it. Regarding the visibility issues of riding a very low profile tadpole trike on roads shared with cars, suvs, and trucks- I agree, though the use of high visibility flags really helps. I've also found in my riding experience, that motorists really tend to give a wide berth of clearance to low profile trikers...probably because they're not sure about us, thinking that we're handicapped or something along that line. That courtesy really runs counter to the all-too-often adversarial treatment that traditional cyclists receive from those very same motorists. Still, it's really unsettling to have a humongous suv pull alongside you(in your trike), and you find yourself eye-to-eye with the hubcap/rim of that 18" front wheel. <http://photos.imageevent.com/gyuenfamily/geoffswatchpics/websize/P1000018.JPG> Best regards, Geoff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
