Good progress!
I noticed my brake caliper isn't functional at all! I think this is because of the spring provided with the kit is too long and needs to be shortened to gain more travel on the lever. I haven't been able to test this because of a leak in my rear wheel (disassembled) but I will shorten the spring soon.
btw you need a new stainless strip on the brake caliper. brutal force made it bend! Need to check mine!

If you mean the stainless plate where the cable goes through, I had to bend that to make the cable miss the wheel nut

Hi Paul, Looking great, all of it. Where did you get the carbon foil? Please keep sharing pictures. Love the wheel covers! @edwin: stickerland.nl also has the carbon look wrap. Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using proboards |

well thats it ! the tr1kes gone................................... back to RTR for its test. Hopefully according to Paul there should not be any problems. And as an added bonus, I got to Have a quick drive around the streets of Nottingham on trade plates! Did have one scary moment when the throttle stuck, but the kill switch was in reach so not a big disaster. Should have it back and on the road in about 4 weeks-ish. Any sugestions for who to go to for insurance....... Can`t see the big dog doing this one.Forgot to take any pictures when I dropped it off, but RTR currently have 4 tr1kes in the building , so they are going to do a bit of a photo shoot. Heres a pic I took last night in the garage before todays trip.  |

Looking really nice, been thinking of a centre stripe almost the same, so may have to alter it now so as not to infringe copyright :-)

Hi Paul
Well done getting done in good time, and the coldest time of the year too.
Like Eric your pic doesn't show for me...but it looks very good on rtr's link.
Cheers
