To carry cargo on
hills that force you to slow down to about 3 mph or less, without getting
off and pushing a bike up the hills, I would choose a trike.
I am not sure that
this kind of trike would be easier at very slow speeds than a two
wheel cargo bike. But it does appear that it would have better traction
when cornering fast.
I do not know if the
shocks are needed when using center point steering.
I also think it would be
better to use the two support arm method, even if just to distribute the weight
off of the one single bearing.
See the video above before building this one.
Center point steering
axis should not be exactly centered. Maybe a half inch to one inch off the
center of the 2 inch tire?
there are easier ways of making the tilting mechanism |
This one does have some
bump steer.
This two sided one is better, but is more complex.

leaning trike rear end could be simpler to build
