Title: Looking for a Trike Post by Don on Oct 14th, 2010, 4:52pm Hi Guys, I am trying to get a trike, something like a Sun Tadpole with 2 wheels in front and one in back. I have two recumbents to sell or trade for a trike. I will trade both for a trike i can ride. The two bikes are Sun EZ-1 Lite (Aluminum frame) 21 speed with the 20 inch conversion done so that both front and back tires are 20 inch.I still have the old fork and tire for it. the bike rides great I just need something with three wheels because of my health condition i dont balance that well and am way bent over so i have a hard time straitening my legs when im not rolling. the bike is Gun barrel gray. The other bicycle is Actionbent Full Suspention Roadrunner. 27 speed. I think its a midracer. It has 26 in back tire and 20 inch front tire. I havent ridden the bike except when i bought it to ride and thought i could adjust it to fit me.......Im just to bent over so it hurts like heck when i try to start or stop and have to drop one foot to the road. The bike still looks like it is brand new. it is yellow in color. I cant really drive to well so im trying to sell them or trade them for a trike. Its to nice of weather for me to be sitting here.I need a trike and some wind in my face. My phone number is 903-967-7588 Just ask for Don. Im disabled and dont work, you can call at any time if interested. Thanks in advance Don |

Title: Re: Looking for a Trike Post by Don on Oct 15th, 2010, 4:15pm Hi Tim, I miss having anything to post. I made a deal with the wife (She doesnt like me riding on 2 wheels and worries when i do) That I would get rid of what i have and get something with 3 wheels so i can ride and she can relax. I know recumbent is pretty much the only way i can ride and actualy see whats infront of me and the way the seat is i think helps my back straiten up some. I know when i was riding every day I felt great and was standing a lot taller than i od when i dont ride. One of my goals is still the same as it was when i get the ez1. I want to travel.i figure i can start with small trips to the local lakes and practice camping and get excersize at the same time. there are so many lakes within 50 or so miles of me that i could do this alot and have different scenery nearly each trip. plus i like fishing so i can take a small fishing pole and just relaxe when I am there. Eventualy i would like to go on some long rides/trips and write about it and how I think this can help people with A.S. (Ankylosing Spondylitis) and most enyone with health conditions that tend to keep us homebound. I mean i cant walk ot stand very long withought being in some serious pain. I still walk a little and when i have to i stand and i conceal when i hurt pretty good. I think most people do the same. Riding recombents is so pain free its pretty amazing that Doctors dont figure out how to perscribe this to alot of people with simulair problems. I guess the second biggest selling factor would be Freedom. I know for me it is. Talk to you soon, Don |

[/quote] Don, jman here, I still have the EZ Tad that I bought from original owner, Caroll who is in here as well. It is a great trike but due to heal problems I don't ride it any longer. For a club member, I'll sell it in here for $600. It has upgraded Primo Comets with Kevlar linings with less than 100 miles on them. If you would like to take a look and ride it around the complex, I live just west of 360 and hwy 183 off Trinity Blvd and Post oak. give me a call if your intrested. 817-448-7025 Joe |

Title: Re: Looking for a Trike Post by diannalightning on Oct 27th, 2010, 7:41pm JimFPU ==I have a friend wanting to sell his Action Bent Artifice. Go to actionbent.com and you can see one like it. If interested, email me at dfain99@yahoo.com and I'll send you my friends phone numbers. He's not a member of RBent, nor does he have email. He does live in the Lantana area so you can make arrangements to test ride. |

Title: Re: Looking for a Trike Post by JimFPU on Oct 28th, 2010, 7:45am Diana, the Artifice is no longer listed...what is the equivalent? Even at those prices, they are out of my league...it would have to be a REALLY GOOD deal. |

Title: Re: Looking for a Trike Post by diannalightning on Oct 28th, 2010, 11:14am Jim, I sent you an email. |
