Trikke T12 - Carving in Tiburon w/ Canon HF10 HD Camcorder

[chrinamint]

Hey Sam...cool video (I've seen it a bunch of times, but just now commenting here). What a great area you have to ride in! Except you're in the road for so much of it...I hate having to worry about cars coming! Makes me nervous!

What's this about tires not being the same size? Who is gonna have different-sized tires??

Anyway, I like your videos...post more! ;O)

Bonito video, la máquina es alucinante, parece capaz de desplazarte en todas las circunstancias posibles sin esfuerzo aparente. La canon que utilizas graba unas imágenes impresionantes y nítidas. Lo malo es que en la ciudad este vehiculo no podría deslizarse zigzageando sin colisionar con otro obstáculo. Lo peor es la música infernal(perdón por el calificativo) que has utilizado para acompañar el recorrido tan bucólico de esa zona de san francisco.

i have a question..

do all three wheels have to be the same type?

my mom's trikke has the same front tire you have, but her back two are the smaller type.. does this matter? because we are having trouble riding it

[BayAreaTrikker]

Hello, no all the tires do not have to be the same size to ride it properly. You do want to make sure that the air tire(s) are inflated between 80-90psi.

I know this response is late (didn't see it until now), but if you are still having trouble, just try to make it go by turning the handlebars left and right and keep the steering column straight (or in other words, prevent the steering column from leaning left or right). Once you get it to move a few mph, then start intruducing the lean.

Awesome - you sold me on the T12!

I live in the Bay Area too, (Corte Madera). I always go downtown with my friends.

Great carving BayAreaTrikker,

I agree with TrikkeGuy. I'd like to see how you do uphill.

All the best,

Marcio

[BayAreaTrikker]

Thanks Marcio! Actually I have a bunch of hill videos, but haven't had any time to upload them yet. I will try and get them out this month. I do have some early Trikke footage in Switzerland where we did hit a bunch of relatively steep hills and they are already uploaded on YouTube. Thanks again!

Thanks Stephen for responding to him...sorry Tullebukkk75, I didn't see your question until today.

[TrikkeGuy]

Well folks, if you want to know what the trikking experience is, this is the video. Thanks for showing all the carving modes: uphill, downhill, side slope, flats, putting the peddle to the metal, punching the handlebars down in a snapping motion, playing with curbs, handling walkers/dogs/bikes, circling, sight seeing, safety equipment, and pure fun falling a few inches at a time. Way to carve -- wish you were my neighbor.

[BayAreaTrikker]

Very nice of you TrikkeGuy. Thank you for the great comments!
