Trikes - super sensitive front steering
My new trike is giving sleepless night. The front steering is super loose and making it next to impossible to ride the trike. Can you help? It is Adult 26 Tricyle

We'll need more info and pix in this thread, too.

The headset may be loose. This article Headset Repair Help Articles | Park Tool particularly the section on threaded headsets will discuss adjusting. If you can get it to a bike shop, they could evaluate it for this or other problems in a relatively cheap way. |
If you are saying it doesn't steer like a normal bike that is almost always true with a trike. There is no such thing a leaning into a turn. Most times you have to lean out of the turn to put weight one the outside rear wheel. If I ride a trike a lot I get better at it but am never satisfied with the handling compared to riding a single. That is why I do not currently own a trike. Roger

Going from a regular bike of most any type to an adult trike is strange. You will get used to it. You simply steer. On bikes you lean and steer which is totally different.
