I'll do my best to let you know how I get on. Only trouble is, if I get on really well with it, I'll be out, not on here.
Twitchiness is the thing that puts people off riding my 2-wheel bent. I do have a ludicrously tiny front wheel though (16"), the next one will be 20". You get used to it quickly. Oh you'll have SUCH a nice time!First test flight done. A quick 3 miles (between showers). Wow, its twitchy, but not as heavy as I was expecting. Also, loads smoother than expected, compared to my racer. I think I'm going to like this a lot.

yep - that's the thing and it does make a difference. I have to confess to having mine dampened almost all the way, but I prefer it that way to assist with 1 handed steering (and occasional non-handed steering ( yeh I know) plus going downhill with both handed steering!Some ICE trikes have a damping mechanism which can alter the steering - It is a small adjuster on the headset:
I read that with an extra R in it... and was ing my head there for a minute.To steer a trike no handed, you have to lean the wrong way.
