Title: converting direct to indirect steering ????
Post by Cheve11e on Dec 10th, 2017, 2:37pm

[smiley=duel.gif] well, I'm sure it actually could be done, but really I'm just looking to get a tighter/smaller turning circle from lets say a Catrike Trail?  I think stock it has 16.5' and it would be very helpful in my situation (because I am disabled and use the trike fir WAY more than just 'Sport riding').  Anybody have any good ideas about this OR should I just find a used GreenSpeed - I think they have about 12".?
:) Thanks :)
David

Check out recumbents.com . It can and has been done. You can use linkage joints, cable, or even bicycle chain for indirect steering.
