I am done with it though until I get the 406 wheels built. It is scary and kind of disheartening when it bottoms out on every small dip or uneven pavement. It is scary as hell when going 27-28 mph and it really bottoms out and almost throws you out of the fairing! It tore a big chunk of coroplast off the bottom and my head hit the canopy pretty hard. It is a fast little guy though.
When you put the 406 wheels on it put some Scorcher 120's on them. Will provide a better ride and the velo will be faster. Just put Scorchers on my Catrike Speed. Now, I really like the Speed.
I'll give the Scorchers a try when I get the wheels built. I need the rims and spokes as I have an extra set of drum brakes. The next week or so is going to be very busy planting new flower beds and replacing some dead shrubs along with a pallet of zoyzia sod to lay. I might just take everything to Cadence Cyclery and let them build them for me. I usually build my own but they do great work at a reasonable price.
