WANTED: Any tadpole trike
Mar 5th, 2015, 12:20pm
 
I need to find ANY tadpole trike I can adjust to fit my 9 year old son.  I'm trying to get him interested in cycling with me again after failing at interesting him in tandem cycling.  Smiley  I'm assuming he may enjoy it more if he had his own trike.
 
If you have a used trike, or know someone who has a used trike, and are willing to sell it at a reasonable price please let me know!  I'd like to get him one before it warms up so we have something to ride.  Any trike in any condition will be considered!  He has a 37" x-seam.  Thanks!

Utah trikes sells a couple of  models of KMX that work for older children.  We considered one for our grandson.  The Catrike Pocket is a possibility, but if a used one comes on the market, jump on it, because they don't stay unsold.  They are quite a bit more expensive, but the resale on a used one makes it easy to get shed of, too.  There was a KMX dealer in Houston when we were looking.

Well, I just broke down and just ordered a new Catrike Pocket from Bonzai Cycle Werx.  He wanted an Atomic Orange Pocket.  I think he'll really enjoy being able to captain his own trike.
