The PAV is about 75lbs dry. However, please remember the gearing is spot on for a 3 speed for
"relaxed" riding. Since this is a variant of the Worksman Mover industrial trike it is VERY robust
which is a good thing really as it is , for all intents and purpose, bulletproof in everyday use
yielding almost zero maintaince. Think of it this way.......Cadillacs and Rolls Royce ride like
clouds for one reason.......weight. My PAV is silky smooth as trikes go with a truly comfy ride.
We still drive a 93 Chevy Suburban due simply to the super comfortable ride. It's a poor mans
limosine if there ever was one.
Can you take a "road trip" with one? Sure, just don't get in a hurry. This is leasure super dependable
riding at it's best. One you can take without the worry of a breakdown.
The PAV is built only when you place an order so it truly is your "trike" because YOU tell Worksman
what you want when you place an order. Never will you get a "one size fit's all" trike off the shelf
as Worksman does not hold ready built inventory. It took abut 6 wks for my trike to get built and
shipped to me. It's so sweet!!!!!!!
