Catrike Expedition
Details
A Sport-Luxury Catrike with a wide track and long wheel base. It is capable of handling heavy loads for long distance touring and it is still a fast machine with a very wide gear range.
Honestly, I think this is Catrike's most versatile trike. Not only does it make a superb touring platform, but with a few changes, the thing will scoot right along with the best. The 26" rear wheel gives enough flex to offer some shock absorption for those long tours. This wheel size also plugs you into an incredible amount of tires from go fast to soft and spongy cruiser.
An Expedition with a Power On Cycling hand-built 650 rear wheel, Schwalbe Ultremo R Tire, and Schwalbe Durano's on the front, is a totally different animal. Fast, responsive, and able to hold speed on the long haul. All this and you still have ground clearance aplenty!!
