Wonder what the "big wing" formations must have sounded like. Off now....my cycling buddy has arrived! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Willow wilson 894 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 A well turned out trike machine you have there Rog. I take it yours is the one with black rims. Impressed. Drum brakes, proper steering geometry, (Ackerman ?). Out of interest is there any special way to measure/adjust trike wheels alignment? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
plantfit 7,580 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Hi Willow,you set them up the same as a motor vehicle with about 1mm toe in,measure the distance between the wheel rims at the rear,then again at the front and adjust on the track rod ends if needed, You can see the track rods and ends and steerer in this picture Rog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philmayfield 6,115 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Proper rod end bearings. Probably aircraft quality knowing you Rog! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philmayfield 6,115 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 There used to be a factory not far from you Rog who used to make rod ends. It was at Saxilby and was called Rose Bearings. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
plantfit 7,580 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 still get Rose bearings, a lot of trike riders have changed the original ends to the Rose ones, I think ICE fit them as standard now, Rog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
