The new “boy” on the block seems to be popular and I know the owner of this Trizard, my BROL friend “The Hipster” [Gregory McLean from NE Dakota Territory]. Needless to say, I also have an interest in this trike. I wonder who will chain them together to make a tandem?
My post on Delta Trikes has garnered some interest. It is now #10 on the list of all-time viewed list of posts. I’m not sure what the viewer interest is; but, I’ll have more on delta trikes.
Bryan Ball, ‘Bentrider Managing Editor, will soon publish his review of the Trizard. Bryan says:
RANS Trizard First Impression
I stopped by The Bicycle Man this afternoon and got a quick spin on the new RANS Trizard delta trike. To say I was impressed is an understatement. The Trizard has love it or hate it looks and some aspects of it are a bit odd but the ride is fantastic. The handling and comfort were great and seems to be a pretty fast mover. RANS had worked out most of the bugs from the Interbike prototype but there were still one or two minor ones to address. One of the chain idlers was pretty noisy in one or two gears for example. The thing I was most impressed with was the use of pretty standard bike parts. The Trizard uses standard bike hubs on all three wheels. I sent an inquiry in on fenders, pannier racks and what not… Full review coming next week but so far I really like this delta/tadpole crossover.
Randy Schlitter, founder of RANS Bikes, also has a good Into the Ride Article on the Trizard as well as background on its development.
