Trikes: Chaco 81 spd next to Tulpa

[Rorschandt]

While my neighbors attempted to train their wonderful puppy to be a mindless robot, I took some
photos of my trikes to give them something to talk about with the other neighbors("What weird *%#@
is he up to now...?").

Included are photos of seat adjustment,chain handling, and side by side pics with the Tulpa.

everything.

Thanks for looking at my stuff.

I would still not cover the framework on the new one you are building, any difference in handling or
performance with the smaller rear wheel?

Quite impressive! Are you sure you have enough gears? Maybe a 3 x 9 hub, or a mountain drive in
front (hee hee hee) Seriusly, I always run out of higher gears. Seems you have that problem solved.
Happy riding!

a mere 81 speeds

I once had a LWB with 105 speeds and almost moved up to 135 speeds, but a friend asked how many of
the 105 speeds I used....answer was 5. So I decided to forget the 135. Now I am down to 21 speeds
and I still only use 5.

I say dump the cassettes and derailleurs, and put two Rohloff 14-speed hubs on the trike.
