I initially became interested in this design for its low profile and laid back recumbent style.I’m not a real speed guy but do like the advantage this trike offers when it comes to moving along at a quick clip if you choose to or just “feel the need for speed”.
This is a very solid frame and is not going to breakdown on you if you get a bit rough with it.
I built my own wheels simply because I enjoy the process. Wheel lacing can be an art but is not that difficult once you get started with a good plan in mind and some very basic tools. We can cover this subject in a later blog. A great source of information is http://www.sheldonbrown.com/wheelbuild.html
