Hi there
I have bought a very old and forgotten Flevo Trike [ the white one with stripes and FlevoBike in red and black ].
Can I ask for some advice on riding it ?
I seem to be able to get on it and set off however when I try a turn of 90' or greater the front wheel seems to continue to turn beyond the 90' and fall over instead of me being able to straighten the trike up and proceed in a straight line ?
I suspected the tilt damper under the seat as it has started to separate from the metal plates top and bottom.
I have changed that for a new one and it has brought a small improvement.
I usually ride a DIY Python trike , I cannot ride either a 2 wheeled Python or FlevoBike , so my riding experience is quite limited.
regards Paul
