This. I just don't get trikes what so ever unless there is some sort of handicap justifying it. Then again, to each his own.

Thanks to all that have replied. She's looking forward to getting on it as a two wheeler to get use to it some before it gets triked.

The reason for triking it is that she has broken her right knee in the past and has lost some ability with it and is afraid of dropping the bike. She also about three years ago fell and broke her right upper arm in six places as well as cracking the ball in the shoulder. Because of this she has lost some strength in her arm. She really wants to ride and a trike is more stable to ride. I've ridden our friends Sportster with the Frankenstein trike kit and it steers like it has power steering. So I think this is the best for her so she can ride.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of our fell bike riders.
