TerraTrike Steering Mod by Utah Trikes

One of the first things we hear from people when they test ride the TerraTrikes is how wide of a turn it makes. Well after years of making 3-point turns we decided to do something about it. Our modification is simple and immediately cuts the turning radius in half. This works on all WizWheelz TerraTrikes with indirect linkage steering. (Path, Cruiser, Tour, Access, Sport, Race).

I just installed this part and it does work great, as shown in the video. I used a file to notch the frame. Not mentioned in video, but written on a small slip of paper sent with part is the need to re-align the tires after install. This was doable but added to the time and hassle. Also, they charged what I thought was an irritating $9.00 for shipping the small part.

We have a flat $9 for UPS Ground. If you only order $30 worth of stuff or $300 it is only $9. Check UPS rates. We don't make any money on shipping.

does this change the Ackerman steering leading to increased tire wear?

[UtahTrikes]

We have set the Ackerman angle to match TerraTrike's original design, so there will be no increased tire wear over the normal arrangement.

@pinkyoot - So noted - thank you for the clarifying reply!

This works great. Still need to add the notch but cornering is so much easier.

oooh... I gotta check that out! I have always wanted to be able to have a tighter turn radius on my TT Tour!
