You are welcome Pat. If I can make the Catrike Rally the first of March, maybe I can get to ride one. Interesting news. I appreciate your comment. –jim
That is a beautiful bike. I am very excited about it. A US manufacturer releasing a lowracer is great. Plus many of the catrike accessories will work with the similar rear end geometry. It looks like a stiff, light and performance bike. I am excited.
The Catrike Rally is held annually the last weekend of February/first weekend of March in Winter Garden, Florida. That is near Orlando. Details are here. –jim
I am very tempted to get this as my performance bike with a compact double, and 10 speed cassette (as in the video) and use my Raptobike as my brevet bike/commuter. It looks very nice, now to see what I can do about fit and a test ride. Unlike some I don’t like Anglelake so I will travel to Portland to visit Marilyn at Coventry when she gets on in.
Well Duncan, you were smitten quickly. It looks like a great ride. If I make the rally, I may take my VK2 for comparison. My trike is without its lighting as I prepare for the tour. I look forward to your reporting setup and ride impressions. I hope to get a comparative feel versus my VK. The best. Thanks! –jim
There aren’t many US lowracers. That alone is a big deal. Having local catrike dealers is a big plus and it does look very nice. It is just a thought right now but a US based lowracer is a rare thing. And it is a beautiful bike.
Wow. Pretty cool. Can’t wait to get more details.
Thanks Jim

I agree! I hope to get to ride on early spring. I’m impressed with the stability. I cannot do the with my VK2. Thanks Duncan. –jim
Where is the Rally? Normally I don’t follow catrike details closely but I would love to see more.
