I knew it! I knew it! RRRRo... Rov....AAIIEE!! I need a doctor!! A Trike Dr.! Seriously, so much depends on so many things- one being weight. I have had many trikes over 30 years; and considering weight - the best I had was the Optima Rhino trike. That trike would handle an elephant! I got it used so it was a surprise purchase, but it was cushy-smooth and was the exact opposite of my TerraTrike I had before it. Wonderful cruiser- suspension and relaxed handlebars under a hard shell 2" (great for my back) open-cell foam seat- but it was not at all like my low and jerky Catrike Speed. For my use the Speed was ideal. Try as many trikes or bikes, if so desired, as possible!
